Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.

No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.

All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

But is it only the CPU or is it the CPU+ everything you need?
Since if you only got the CPU,
but no Motherboard, RAM already etc...
there is really no point at all in buying such old components.
I have the B360 DS3H Gigabyte MOBO.
The CPU comes with built in Graphics. Someone said I can buy a good GPU and be set.
But what If I need to upgrade my CPU and MOBO later on? Do I have to buy one thats compatible with that GPU?
Yeah I'd just buy a used 2080ti and you'll be ok for a bit
Yes. It'll play games now, and a good GPU will still play games when you upgrade the CPU/motherboard years down the road.
No, GPUs only need a PCIe 16x slot which is on every motherboard. It'll work with any future upgrade.
There are newer versions of PCIe coming out that are faster, but all of them use the same slot and are fully backwards compatible (both ways, newer PCIe on GPU works with older PCIe on motherboard, newer PCIe on motherboard works with older PCIe on GPU)
So what's the best GPU you can Recommended me for the MOBO+CPU i'm currently using.
It needs to be strong enough that I can stream and I want minimum 60FPS on all those games I listed. Maybe even 120FPS?
My budget for a GPU is $400
