It looks like they only have the i7 6700 at 408$, no sign of 6500.
I am getting confused guys! Some websites are showing just 1 to 2 fps difference between a 4460 and a 6600 while the one I posted before showed a difference depending on the game between 2 to 15fps wbetween the 4460 and 6500, some guys told me that my gtx 970 is the limiter and not the cpu, I OC my already OC MSI Gaming yesterday and won a minimum fps of 8 but not the max fps(vsync off).
So should I sell my system and get a new 4460 one and save 50-60$ or take a new 6500 system? If there was a used 4690k + mobo + rams I would have take it but I can't find
Skylake is a very small performance increase over Haswell, that's why it doesn't perform a lot better. Unless you play ARMA and Total War, the CPU
ISN'T an important factor in a gaming PC, get the i5 4460 and save the $60, that 5% IPC increase and 0.2GHz increase in clock speed won't magically give you 15FPS in any game, the site you saw the benchmark on is surely just wanting to make Skylake look like a huge, NetBurst to Core-like increase in performance which it's not, it's merely a Sandy to Ivy Bridge-like performance increase.
