i3-2120 vs Athlon 5200 Dual-Core - Anthem GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q - Spelprestanda Benchmarks

Will 1080ti run decently with i3 2120So basically i have an i3 2120 cpu and a 960 sc 2GB, i plan on upgrading the whole pc, right now i can either get a 1080ti and get a i7 8700k with a z370 mobo and 16GB ram later (about 3 to 4 months) or i can do the opposite, getting the cpu and motherboard and ram and 3 or 4 months later getting the gpu.Im basically 50/50 in that decision as of now, need to know if it will bottleneck too much, it will be used for gaming, fortnite, csgo, rainbow six siege, gta V and the upcoming cod. Thank you in advance.

Keep to your original plan and get the card. 4 months from now 1080Ti may be hard to find new, just don't know.Right now you can get an almost new 1080Ti for half price. You'll be paying full price for a 2080 and bet bottom dollar there wont be much difference besides price ~900+euros or however much new cards are there.As for running the card with the i3 there's no harm in trying. In theory and logical thinking it will bottleneck but be interesting to see it in practice since actual experience on the matter is limited because not many people would be in the same boat and tell about it.

i3-2120 OR Q6600Hello everyone!A friend of mine wanted me to ask you if it's a good idea to change his CORE 2 QUAD Q6600 CPU with i3-2120(used)He has his Q6600 for 8 years and someone is selling him one i3-2120(with a deepcool cooler included)(used for 3 years) for 60 EUR(OR 70 USD) . He is a photographer and he is using his computer for photoshop , illustrator, etc.Is it a good idea to change his Q6600 for the i3-2120??

For that programs, I think is better a new CPU than a GPU. Of corse 1GB vram is poor for heavy works in PS.The 1030 2GB may be sufficient. I was searching reviews, and almost all the GPUs perform equal in PS (1080ti seems to be only 8% faster than a 1050).I suggest another thing... If he wants a new PC.Iam not Intel or AMD fan, I suggest Intel because usually performs better than AMD with 1-2 core apps. (Not sure if Illustrator uses a lot of cores, but I don´t think so).Intel Core i3-7100 3.9Ghz BOX: 99.95€Gigabyte GA-B250M-DS3H: 63.25€G.Skill Ripjaws V Red DDR4 2400 PC4-19200 16GB 2x8GB CL15: 165€(For O.S. and programs) Samsung 850 Evo SSD Series 250GB SATA3: 97,95€(For storage and personal files) Toshiba DT01ACA200 2TB SATA3 64MB: 73,54€ I suggest to buy 2 HDD, one for the tower, other for a external USB to make security copy of own data.For the power supply, I should go for a Tier One. http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html I have a SuperFlower, is quite an not too much expensive. I have had a lot of cheap PSUs and allways end broken in 1-year. And a SAI like the SALICRU SPS SOHO 2000+: +/- 200€. I have one for 3 years, still working fine, only need to change now the 2 batterys.I hope this help, take only as a reference.

Intel i3 2120 budget graphics cardHello i need a graphics card for my intel i3 2120 that isnt more expensive than 80$. My motherboard is Gigabyte H61MA-D2V. I want to be able to play rust and dead by daylight at least on low on 30 fps or more i found gtx 660 but its over my budget

Kind of tough because graphics cards are so expensive right now due to the mining craze. I would recommend looking at a GTX 750ti or something like that. Your best bet will probably be the local ads for used parts, or maybe Craigslist. Look on ebay as well. You may get lucky as well. I recently sold a Radeon 7950 for 70 on ebay, plus about 8 dollars shipping. If you could score a deal like that, that should run you a little while.

i3-2120 or i3-3220 ?Hello! I want to know before buying any processoer that is there any difference between i3-2120 vs i3-3220. Does my games run faster on i3-3220?I already have a gpu so I don't care about their HD-graphics and I am currently using G2020 processor.Please don't tell me to buy i5 because I have no budget.

Yes, they are better for gaming, just as a haswell i3 would be even better. If you feel the need to 'upgrade', I'd advise you to stay with your G2020 until you can afford an i5 3570k.
