Ah fair enough.
TBH I'd suggest building the kids an AMD equipped system and save yourself several hundred quid. A quad core AMD will save you about 200 quid and the most you'd lose between that and a high end Intel, assuming a discreet GPU is in place, would be about 10fps. Also going to assume as it's kids you have it hooked up to a TV ? So as long as it's not 4K the most they'll need to push is 1080p, meaning an AMD quad core and a GTX960 would give them 60FPS no matter what. Just a suggestion, if you wanna spoil em (and give you an excuse to give yourself an even higher end rig) go ahead ha.
