Is the intel core i5 9600k good for smooth vr? I’m planning to urn it with a 6gb gtx 1060.
Is this setup good for vr I’ve never found many trusty results for vr so I want to ask for a result from a person who is well into this stuff.
 
Solution
Yes, the 9600k is a very good match for the GTX 1060. More than good actually. Some might even say it's overkill for that card. Really it's about what you want to see and you should have no problems with that combination.

Okay thanks so much I didn’t know if it was like a old generation I assumed it was but thanks for the answer.
 
Are you talking about the i5-9600k or the i7-960? Totally different processors and generations? Your title says 960k but then in thread you say 9600k.
 


Oh I’m sorry that was a mistake I meant the i5-9600k
 
Intel's web site shows the Intel Core I5-9600K has a release date of quarter four of 2018 (Q4'18). That means the processor was just released in the last month or so. It is a current generation processor.

Yes, then it is as I said before, a good match. If it had been the i7-960, not so much.
 


So yeah in all good for vr?
