Is the 4th gen I5 obsolete?

>>59507541
The processor should be capable of pushing enough to feed that GPU.

I'd be inclined to suggest it's a problem with the game. Look at things like 7 Days to Die. The game is poorly optimised, so it runs like shit from time to time, fine others.

I'd expect ME:A is about the same.

You bought mass effect............ Fucking kill yourself.

Most people still run i5 an 2500k which was released back in 11'
You will be fine, i myself usually upgrade my cpu around every 4 years.

TB ended his ME:A stream because of framedrops and that guys system is overkill. Game is just shit.

And as long as consoles exist, CPU performance wont be that much of a deal (except in PC exclusives). I could get by with a fucking Core 2 Duo until the PS4 came out.

Xbox and PlayStation are getting more and more hardware updates, they're getting more powerful. The 'I buy a console that'll last 8 years' argument has become invalid because there are already 3 PS4 versions and the third, more powerful, Xbox 1 is on it's way. Games will start to use CPU more, because games dont need to look super realistic to be appealing. Look at overwatch, its not heavy on graphics at all.

>Mass Effect Andromeda has fps dips. This must be a cpu related issue?

It's not CPU-intensive at all.

>>59507541

>>59507652

Why is that graph the most misleading graph I've seen posted in the last few months? pls don't use it, the scale is horrible

>>59509173
it looks to me they add min fps and average fps, to punish cpus that would have high or comparable average but noticeably lower minimum fps or significant drops

>>59509173
How is it misleading at all, you fucking retard?

>>59509173
What the actual fuck are you talking about?

>>59509359
You're retarded too. How can you people have trouble reading such a simple table?

>>59509476
ad hominem ad hominem amen

>>59509359
>it looks to me they add min fps and average fps

Do you have some sort of brain damage?

>>59509554
That's not what ad hominem means, you retarded cunt. You didn't make any sort of argument. You just proved that you're too dumb to understand a bar graph with a legend attached.
