How good will a 6700k run?

So I'm updating my rig, I currently have a 4670k with a 980 ti but just ordered an i7 6700k, how good will my games run on dolphin? I haven't played on the emulator for a loooong time so I'm not really aware of the CPU resources it currently needs

Perfectly.

There will be nothing you can't run.

Around 8.23% faster at the same clocks compared to a 4790 in Dolphin last I tested.

Your 4670k would've run it just fine. 6700K would be even better.

I presume you made an entirely new Skylake build with a new motherboard and DDR4? What are you going to use your leftover 4670k & mobo for?

Yes I'm making an entirely new build, the other CPU and mobo i'll probably sell it and buy a new case with the money

If you're willing to sell outside of Amazon/Ebay...

I have a friend who may be in the market for a Haswell. Or I might be interested myself. Let me know if you're willing to sell via tech forums like OCN or Techpowerup (where I have trader ratings).
