My PC has better specs but its doing worse in the games that they tested.
My specs are:
Intel® Core™2 Quad Q6600
AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series
4GB ram
What the fuck is the problem?

The 5700 is a bit gash, and if you're running a single-threaded game, you're wasting 75% of your processor's capability.
The Q6600 gets most of its grunt from using four cores; if you're not actually using them, it's gonna be slower than more core2 duos, because it's only clocked at 2.4GHz if you're not overclocking it.

If you want to join the '10s, get a Xeon E5450, a 775/771 adapter sticker, a GTX 1050ti, and an extra 4GB.
The 1050 will still be good for when you get a PC that isn't ten years old, and you'll pay less than $200 for the lot if you shop around.

I mean, doesnt games like Fallout 4 and GTA5 use all four cores?

>Xeon E5450
Is this the best possible cpu for this price and what motherboard should I get?

>Is this the best possible cpu for this price

>and what motherboard should I get?
The one you already have.

I'm not OP and got told at /g/ that x5460 with q5p motherboard is better?
>>222309
And a Skylake i7 is better than both.
What's your point?
>>222333
because its the same price, obviously. Are you ok?
>>222336
It's not the same price if you have to buy a new motherboard.

How much of a difference will I see, If I go from amd athlon x2 3800+ 2,0ghz to x5460? Is it going to be worth the 60$ price?
