Suggestions for a CPU upgrade

Toopurple · 2014-03-08 18:47:20

Hey guys, I've just upgraded my graphics card from a hd 6670, to an OC R7 260x 2gb on-board, suggested by you guys. However, I think I might be bottlenecking my cpu? Any advice on an affordable upgrade, any suggestions are appreciated. :) Current CPU: AMD fx 4100 quad core

If your motherboard supports it, then how about an FX6300? Newer generation and an extra two cores in there. They're around €100 if you look around.
