I have an i7 930 and I'm soon going to upgrade my gpu add more ram and install an sSD and new psu. But next year I want to completely replace my motherboard and cpu combo. Would a skylake i3 be an upgrade from my much older i7 930? Or more of a side grade so to speak.or should I just save money and get an i5 or new i7?
I have a feeling that the i3 would be better in single thread performance but it's only a dual core. Albeit with total 4 threads. I will be using the pc for gaming modern titles on ultra at no bigger than 1080p resolutions.
