Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my old desktop PC for 720p basic to moderate gaming.

My current PC config is:
  • CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4 GHz
  • GPU: Asus GTX 750 2 GB GDDR5
  • RAM: 8 GB DDR3 RAM @ 1333 MHz
  • PSU: Antec 450W PSU
  • HDD: 500 GB
From online research, I found the GTX 750 builds with these CPUs:
  • i5-2400
  • i5-3470
  • i7-6700
  • i3-7100
I'll also be upgrading my RAM to 16GB DDR3 / DDR4 depending on the motherboard.

Please suggest which CPU I should use for better 720p gaming performance and minimum bottleneck
with a GTX 750.
