How does that I5 run for you? Just cuious, I considered getting one.

Perfectly fine. With my GPU specifically, you may bottleneck a little if you play at 1080p depending on the game but otherwise its really good!

Massive CPU bottleneck to be sure. RAM is good though. SSD good. Definitely a PC worthy of PR and Arma 3. i5 probably suffers bad from Arma 3 though. Considering how CPU intensive it is. Even for my i9 extreme. 100 player servers I rarely see more than 50-60 FPS at 4K.

Not at all. I play at 1440p which is perfect with the GPU and CPU combo I have. Like I said at 1008p you will most likely get a bottleneck. This CPU is one of the newer gens, even though i5, it's not bad

It's really thanks to the heavy lifting done by the new Nvidia gear - when GPU is forced to take the bulk of graphics and even simultaneous encoding, these heavy multitasking CPU's can really keep on chugging, probably not even passing 80% when live streaming a more demanding game than Project Reality (I assume?).  Even between the lower core count CPU's, it's getting easier to find the bottlenecks in I/O, or even the optimization of the various programs running.  Don't need to use an HEDT CPU for higher end PG gaming these days if you got good gear complimenting it ... just my 2 cents
