Hi All,

looking for some advice for a friend. He has an older dz77ga70k mobo and wants to get a reasonable priced chip for it that can handle unity content creation on a 6870 Gfx card.

He's not looking to set the world on fire so i figured a decent i5 would do but my knowledge of older chips is "incomplete" lets say :)

any advice very gratefully received.
 
i think that board can use up to a 3770k (im not 100% on that) i think i have the 50k version and that is what i can use at the most.
I am using an i5 2500k which seems to work well enough.
 
Super thanks for the advice. As it turned out another friend had a 4790 lying around so it turned out that getting a new mobo and all other components turned out to be the same price as finding a new 3770.
