Hello everyone! I am just wondering if the i5 4690k will be okay for the future. I have been reading some threads that say that many games have started to reccomend i7s and how DX12 will support multi-threading and stuff like that. I need to know if this CPU will be able to play high end games in years to come. I just need to know about my proccessor since I will be getting a GTX 980 ti probably

I have a i5 4670k and even with no OC it would max out Castle Wildenstein The New Order which recommended an i7, my CPU would get no where near 100% usage. I am inclined to think when they recommend an i7 on games they mean the lower power mobile i7's used in laptops.
