Help with upgrading pc please

samuelcooke77 · Apr 14, 2013

Hey there, i am not the most techy person so i need some help. I recently upgraded my gpu to the ASUS HD 66701GB GDDR5. However with my old CPU (Intel Pentium E5800) I was still getting performance issues.

So i sold some stuff on ebay and i now have £130 to spend on a new CPU and Motherboard. Right now i am looking at getting these

Motherboard - AsRock N68C-GS FX Motherboard

CPU - AMD Bulldozer FX-4100 Socket AM3+ 4 Core Processor - 3.60GHz

Will these do the trick, i am looking to be able to play most games like battlefield and arma 3 on normal settings.

Thanks alot for any help

Bulldozer is a total fail and the mobo is dead old

Your best bet for games you're talking about is to get a8-5600k and enable dual graphics w/6670 you already have.

Here is the CPU :

(£79.47)
and the mobo :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/AsRock-FM2A55M-DGS-Motherboard-Socket-PCI-Express/dp/B009KPK4VQ/ref=pd_sim_computers_2
(£44.04)

total :
£123.51

OR

AMD a8-3870k :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006J420UE/?tag=pcp0f-21
(£72.20)

and the mobo:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005AI207S/?tag=pcp0f-21
(£56.95)

total: £129.15

or this mobo :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asrock-Socket-A75M-HVS-Micro-Atx-Motherboard/dp/B0058HBO46/ref=pd_sim_computers_3#productDetails

total : £117.40

Both you can enable dual graphics with
Best Luck
