Hardware Fucking Awesome!

I just upgraded my core 2 duo e8400 to a core i5 6600k and I swear to the Gods I about shit myself. Noone prepared me for the powerful upgrade this would be. Anyone know about any new games I could totally run with this new processor? I mean - I've got a mildly powerful graphics card (gtx 650). However, I can still run Crysis 3 at 40 fps.

Welp that's weird, i've got a meh CPU but a GTX960 and it runs 60 FPS for me (which is kinda surprising because of the CPU). Not sure how 960 is better than the 650.
And you can run w/e game you want, try Dark Souls 2 DX11 version, ur gonna like the 60FPS in it

Thanks man! Yeah, your graphics card beats mine for sure. For one its got a higher memory bandwidth by about 20-25Gbps. And I do believe it has higher texture fill rate, plus a boost core clock speed and 2gb of vram. My graphics card only has 1GB of vram Your cpu is your bottleneck, my graphics card is my bottleneck.

I'm eventually going to get oculus rift and its my main reason for upgrading.

My core 2 duo feels ancient compared to this new rig. Thanks.

Starcraft 2 is a very cpu intensive game, you can play the arcade games without buying it too.
