content: My quad core xeon is from 2012 and suspiciously keeps up with the i7-4970k and i7-6700k. Only thing made a huge difference for me playing games was picking up a 55" 4K LED at 120hz. Some people snob playing PC on a TV but I can play anything I want with whatever controls I feel like using. Just last night I bombed a church using a keyboard and mouse from my couch. You know why? Because I could. That's fucking why.
