I wondered whether the i5 2400 or i7 2600 could maintain steady 60fps in triple A titles back in 2019, similar to what modern warfare 2019 or Destinty 2 offered. I also thought about playing PUBG and realized that if the CPU is slow, lowering graphics settings wouldn’t help much.

The i5 2400 might struggle a bit, while the i7 2600 will still lag behind today’s standards but shouldn’t cause major bottlenecks. It should generally deliver around 60 fps in games, though performance will depend on the paired GPU.

Matched with the appropriate GPU, yes—they remain functional.

I'm considering the i5 but have some concerns. The i7 might still perform well on the same socket, and there are 3rd generation Intel chips like the i5 3570 or i7 3770 available. You could also explore Xeon CPUs, which might offer better value depending on your location. If you opt for an i7, you may find comparable or even improved performance at a lower price—for instance, instead of an i7 3770, you might get a 1275v2 or 1290v2 model.
