Hey guys I'd like some advise, firstly I'm not a massive or competitive gamer like I used to be, I don't have the time anyone. I'm looking for something that's gonna last at least a year, I'm not looking for the highest graphics, I just want to have fun with friends and run smoothly without lag.
I'll be using one 22" monitor

Games :: FSX (main game) the isle, cod4 , global offensive and football manager

Set up one ::

Kirby i5 7600, GTX 1060 6GB , 8GB ram DDR4 120GB ssd, 1TB HD hd

Set up two :
Haswell I7 4790 3.6ghz
GTX 1060 3GB,
8GB Ram DDR3
120GB ssd
1TB hd

I appreciate the listed set up is basic I'm just stuck choosing between the 6/3GB 1060 and the difference between DDR3/4 ram

My guess would be that the haswell will still out perform the new i5? And would be better suited for FSX?

Thank you

The higher clock speed and architecture of the kabylake 7600 along with ddr4 will out perform the 4790 even though it has hyperthreding. Get the 6gb 1060 if you move on to the latest games 3 gb of vram is swolled up.
