Krazyface posted:I'm midway through upgrading my PC; I've picked a new graphics card, and I'm looking for a new CPU that won't bottleneck it too badly. This is for gaming; while I'm not going past 1080p and 60fps for the moment, I really want to be able to turn things up. I'm in Australia, so everything sucks and is expensive; I'm willing to spend up to $500ish. What's my best option? I'd prefer not to replace the motherboard, but that's negotiable. Full details here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YGVNq3 Are you having issues? Your options are a 6700k, or a 7700k. See what your used prices look like in your area. You can't overclock either, but you need the k-chip for the base frequency jump.

Just pick one known to work well in mint/linux (check their forums), and get that one. It's nearly always an intel chipset you want on linux.

There's plenty of examples of all of those selling on eBay Canada from about 40CAD upwards. If you specifically want smaller than ATX, you might struggle more.
