I5 9600 good? High fps / gaming?

Hi

Is the i5 9600 good for high fps in fortnite on low settings? Or should I rather get another processor because I've heard that you can overclock the i5 9600 well and as good as an i9 then for gaming and if so what should I get for a graphics card? Wanted me maybe after 580 or 590 and because if I play on low settings then the GPU is not so important?

If you do a Ford, you will not get an AMG. An i9 still has hyperthreading, which gives it an advantage in games (with appropriate support). In my place I would buy a Ryzen, in the budget area, Intel does not have much value.

Hi

But the i5 I have presented is actually quite cheap with 250 euro. With a turbocharged speed of 4.6, he is not very bad either. You can still overclock it very well, which I will do too. At least on 4.9ghz

Hi

And ryzen should not have such a good single core performance. But maybe I'm waiting for the next models

wa

With Ryzen, AMD has caught up well. But yes, wait a minute for the Ryzen 3000 models.

Br

Well in comparison to the Ryzen processor 100 euro more expensive and less cores and the CPU maybe times as 5-15 FPS more and that should be a multi-value? And bring you 1000 FPS if you do not even have a monitor with a high hz number, or something?

Hi

It is better

Su

True and here is the Ryzen of the Ford Ryzen hangs what gaming intel Intel after world behind even my i7 7700k scores better than any Ryzen to be in games i5 is already a great choice for Fortnite

Br

This is also a possibility, because if you believe the rumors may give them more cores and a higher clock rate and thanks to the once again reduced architecture no longer waste heat.

So it seems quite interesting: 3

Hi

Well, get me a 144hz monitor

Br

144hz Full HD probably pretty safe right? Otherwise it would make no sense with the high-FPS gaming, if you do not want to spend more money on a graphics card

Hi

Thanks for the comment, the i5 is really good

Hi

Please read my comment again, I wrote that I want to play on low settings. That's why +144 fps is realistic with ner 580

wa

What you're saying is just stupid Intel fanboy babble. Yes, your 7700K beats most Ryzen CPUs, but for what price? And you can't say "around worlds" either, but the Ryzen 5 2600 alone has little to do with games.

Su

I'm not an Intelfanboy far, I'm waiting for the Ryzen 3000s for example 6700k is for 150 euro already to get and when we watch games that have no good multicore support makes it fast 50FPS from my dear that dribela games great running is yes no performance

ch

Dribela games

May I ask what is this? Do you mean AAA games?

Br

Instead of the 580, there's already a RX 590 for minimal extra charge and even under 200 euro.

Hi

It is no secret that Intel offers better performance for gaming, whether the price is justified or not.

wa

I've never said so synonymous, have also explicitly stated that Intel is stronger but by the price in a budget is out of the question.

An Intel Core i5 - 8600K / 9600K in conjunction with an Intel Z370-PCH meets your requirements for max. FPS @ Low- / Midrange - Definitely opposes graphics quality settings, because:

- Intel has from Skylake (Intel 6000 - Series) in gaming an unprecedented computing power per core & Mhz.

- The Core i5 - 8600K / 9600K have no negative influencing SMT (hyperthreading) for these requests, but really "only" 6 cores / 6 threads. Since neither Windoof, nor the game software per se suboptimal attack in the thread occupancy per core & thread.

For low to midrange quality settings you only have to look in Fortnite for optimal results, if an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060/1660 (Non-Ti) in this game on average in low to medium details higher AVG - FPS than a Radeon RX 580/590 could bring to FPS - maxout.

Hi

Thanks for your detailed comment parhalia2, very helpful!

Should still wait for the next ryzen processors?

pi

My answer does not exist, but Ryzen is most likely to find it.

For a RX 580/590 you do not need the processor, the performance runs almost into the void. Either a Ryzen 6 kerner or a 8700K or 9700K, the 9600K has only 6 Therads, which could soon become Eng.
Honestly, I would wait until the Ryzen 3000 come, then again could do something at the price of Intel. Degree is a stupid time to buy when it's not rushing.

Hi

I'll wait, thanks

I do not want to get involved as a "fanboy" here, although AMD has regained my trust. I suspect that AMD Ryzen 3000 (Zen 2) will once again make a notable leap over Ryzen 2000 (Zen +), but in x86 technology as a whole it will be technically able to boil only with water compared to Intel due to current architectural excitement.

If you want to be able to play this game without recording / streaming just online at maximum FPS, in my opinion a Hexacore without SMT, but with currently maximum allround - IPC currently makes the biggest sense.

In many games, SMT (Hyperthreading) beyond 2 - 4 physical cores can still be negatively impacted in the important minimum FPS.

With AMD you can turn off the power on the right board, but in the case of the Ryzen 2600X Ryzen 2000 is about the Intel Core i7 - 5820K to 6800K. (Haswell)

With pre-scheduled OC, an i5-8600K or 9600K may be in your game for your purposes really be beneficial to your goals; Zen 2 probably will not come close in this specific respect pure for the game without recording / streaming…

If I'm not mistaken, Fortnite can't really benefit from more than 4 - 6 physical threads.

A board with Intel z370 - PCH, however, you have to plan for possible OC price.

Hi

Thanks for the very detailed comment I still have a question and although is the 9600k future-proof?

Ba

For gaming? Difficult to say compared to announced consoles. Nobody knows if there will not really be 8 threads in the future.

As far as is known, at least the PS5 is again set completely on AMD hardware. Intel's FCLGA 1151 v2+ i x370-PCH now supports up to 8 physical cores…

Hi

Okay thanks

Su

Yes, sorry, use language input.

Ba

With the focus on "cross platform" development, it will definitely stay between PC & consoles; and probably further strengthened.

Even if Ryzen 3000 (Zen 2) in the IPC to Intel 8xxx / 9xxx would open up at eye level, it would be only about 25% in terms of 6 vs. 8 physical cores.

I dare to doubt that ZEN 2 at 6 cores / 6 threads, or even 8 cores / 8 threads despite 7 nm - production will come to 5.0 Ghz base clock… Possibly. At most in the maximum turbo for desktops. (but not in the very compact consoles)

Therefore, I suppose an Intel Core i5 - 8600 (K) to 9600 (k) at least with later OC quite a few years future certainty at the base for pure gaming.

The graphics card is becoming increasingly important for faster infrastructure in more complex games with good graphics.

Su

But what brings him that if it makes no sense why he should buy a cpu which has a better price performance but is worse in what he wants to do
