Hello im recently getting real annoyed by my old CPU, Intel Quad Core Q8300 2.5 Ghz, and need a cheap upgrade, My question to u guys is that would i get an increase (greatly?) in performance for everyday gaming if i were to get these as an upgrade?.

CPU - http://www.skiftselv.dk/cpu/fx-4130-x4-38ghz-12mb-125w-box-am3/

Board - http://www.skiftselv.dk/bundkort/760gm-p23-fx-amd760g-am3-hd3000-matx/

and would they be fully compitable with my current GTX 560 NON Ti ?

i have a 650W Energon PSU

4GB DDR3 1333 Mhz

i play mostly ARMA 2,3 and some mmorpg's.

If your CPU is bottlenecking your GPU, try to do some overclocking. Otherwise, you'll need to upgrade your CPU.

The higher Operating Frequency 3.8 compared to the 2.5 shouldnt that give me a performance boost ? rather than spending money on another ram as it is my cpu that is heavily pulling me back at the moment as well as bottlenecking my Gtx 560 non ti

My current bios does not support overclocking of my CPU, and also im having a really low budget willingly to spend about 150~Euro give or take. so if someone knows of a better setup im all ears!
