then get i5 then, it need less power ratio, then G3258
and it's also great for runing modern games on PC and running modern application. from the result all result is close each other.

If my friend's budget wasn't $600 max I would tell him to get an overclockable i5. But since he made it clear that $600 is the maximum he'd pay, I figured the G3258, considering it is sufficient to max emulators, LoL/MMORPGs, and is capable of playing any game that has been released up to this point at the medium settings which his r9 270x will afford him, excluding Dragon Age Inquisition, then an i5 is unnecessary.
