Hey guys. Building a mid range gaming gig operating on sierra.

Do u think the dual core processor is enough? Planning to run gtx1060 with it.

I wanna play the new civilization and heroes of the storm

Would appreciate ur thoughts

I'd get an I5 but idk your budget

ryzen dont gimp yourself on a dual core or 4 single thread cores and even then overpaying for the performance

I wouldn't get a dual. Get a cheap quad imo
You could go dual but then u can't have a bunch of other apps open at the same time - I always have a million things open but everyone is different I guess?

I'd check Craigslist for these first tho, might be able to get something on the cheap

I would recommend the amd fx 6300.
Can get for $50 used.
mb's are cheap.
uses cheap ddr3 ram
and can be overclocked to 5.0ghz

Why would anyone do this

A cheap system that runs modern games.

What would you recommend that is in the same price range?

Not seeing a price range

whats considered mid range?
i just spent 1100$ on a "low" range

In canada
