Gaming PC - i7-4790 & GTX 1060 6GB (upgraded from Office PC) plays The Crew Motorfest

I found an Office PC on Ebay that was collection only that would be a great base for a Gaming PC upgrade as it had a motherboard which support Intel 4th gen CPUs and I knew the 4th gen HP Pavilion OEM did not use propriety parts and would easily accept a PSU upgrade. Lastly I knew it also had the space to accept a two fan GPU.
After getting the PC I upgraded the CPU, RAM, power supply and added the GPU I started benchmarking.
This video shows how this PC performs in The Crew Motorfest. This PC is marginally above the minimum system requirements. After showing the settings I used (the Low preset) I ran the in-game benchmark. Following that I started the game and went through the introduction races before entering the game proper, driving to the first playlist and event and completing the first race. To jump to the race just to the last 6 minutes of the video however I would advise watching the whole video so you can see how stable the frame rate is in a variety of scenarios.
The full PC specs are:
CPU: Intel i7-4790
Motherboard: Hewlett Packard 2AF7
Ram: 16GB (2 x 8GB) running at 1600Mhz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
Boot Drive: 120 GB SSD
2nd Drive: 500 GB Crucial SSD
3rd Drive: 2000GB Hard Drive (HDD)
Case: HP Pavilion OEM Case
Other: Activated Windows 10 Home, WiFi
The MSI Afterburner overlay shows the real-time stats of the PC during the gameplay.
If you have any questions about the build or the gameplay please leave a message. There will shortly be other videos showing this PC playing other games in a playlist on this channel, so please check them out to get a more rounded view of how this PC performs.

Bro what do u suggest i7-4790 or i5-7500? Pls tell

[@rmgaminguk7079]

Those two cpus are very close, and to be honest I would recommend neither and try to get a faster cpu. The i5-7500 has marginally faster per core speed, but the hyperthreading on the i7-4790 will give it the edge as all threads will be heavily utilised (as shown in this video). The average frame will not be much different but I suspect the 1% low framerates will be better with the i7 despite it being older. If you have a Z series motherboard for either platform I will go with that and get a k series cpu. While the i7-4790k is definitely overpriced on the 2nd hand market the i7-4770k can sometimes be found. For the 7th gen platform if you have a Z series motherboard the i7-6700k can normally be picked up at a good price. Both k series cpu should be easy to overclock to 4.5Ghz which will really help performance. While the i7-4790 cpu would be better, if you only have these options I would actually go with the i5-7500 because you have the option to get the cheap i7-6700 (or i7-6700k) and you are on a more modern platform with ddr4 ram, plus your motherboard might support m.2 nvme drives. However my recommendation if you are choosing between the two is to wait and get something more modern, an i5-8400 at a minimum or ideally an i5-10400 (for 6 cores with 12 threads and faster per core speed). Thanks for watching and the interesting question.
