So if things goes right, I should be able to get a new config (including monitor) at ~christmas. But I still have some questions I wanted to ask you guys :
1°) BenQ XL2411Z as new monitor, is pretty damn good right ? 144hz 1ms 1920x1080 24" for ~285€
2°) Is the GeForce GTX 960 enough to get stable 250fps @ QL at lowest possible GFX settings (except ofc r_lodbias -2 and r_subdivisions 4), in any situations (I mean including big/huge maps with ~16 players) ?
3°) Would you recommend to get a GTX 970 instead of the 960 for games like Reflex, Overwatch or StarWars Battlefront ?
Considering the fact that I will ALWAYS play at lowest possible GFX settings. But I want to get at least 125fps stable for these games, so maybe the GTX 960 is a bit too weak for it ? Or is it more than enough ?
4°) How does the Intel Core i5-4460 compare to the i5-4590 or even i5-6500 ? (I don't plan on overclocking my CPU, so getting any "K" version is pretty much useless I guess). Is the i5-4460 enough for quakelive with a GTX 960/970 to get stable 250fps in any situations (and like I said, at lowest possible GFX settings).
What about for games like OW, Reflex or SW:BF ?
5°) What do you think of the i5-4460 + GTX 960 combination ? Good enough for recent games like OW, Reflex and SW:BF (and still at lowest possible GFX settings), I mean something like 144+fps stable ?
What about i5-4460 + GTX 970 ?
6°) What matters most if you play with ugly GFX, the CPU or the GPU (I guess the CPU right ?) ? I mean, for example, in QL/Reflex, If I play at 1920x1080 and lowest GFX possible, is it really worth it to get a GTX 970 instead of a GTX 960 ? Will I really get a considerable fps boost with GTX 970 compared to GTX 960 ?
7°) Is getting a SSD really worth it ? I can get like 120+Go SSD, but considering the fact that it's relatively expensive (or at least my budget is quite limited), I will think twice before going for it :).
Does it really change the way you play your games/load windows etc etc ? Is it really much faster and comfortable than normal HDD ?
Like I said, I will play only a few games (maybe SCII, OW, SW:BF, Reflex) with my new config. I don't plan on playing any others games. And considering the fact that I still didn't try any of those games, but watched plently of streams of them, it's fair to assume that I can probably get disappointed while finally playing/trying them and go back to QL only again, like I already do these days :). But if I try any of these games listed above, I want to try them in best conditions (~144+fps stable at lowest graphics settings). I guess that I'll also play at 1920x1080 instead of my current 1024x768, so that's why I'm a bit worried by the fact that the GTX 960 might not be enough at that kind of resolution, but maybe I'm completely wrong ?
I won't get any Intel Core-i7 or any "K" version of i5/i7 cause my budget is quite limited and I don't plan on overclocking my CPU. I won't get a GTX 950 cause a bit too weak, or any GTX 980-like GFX card, still cause of my limited budget. I only care about i5-4460, i5-4590 or i5-6500 for the CPUs, and GTX 960/970 for the GPUs, so stay on topic and don't recommend me anything that isn't listed above please ;). Just simply answer my 7 questions if you know/can. Thanks ;)
