Hey,
First off, I'm not amazingly advanced in computer hardware (hence the post here) so I'd prefer if replies aren't filled with technological term!
I've currently got the AMD FX-8120.
What I wish to know is, could I go from my current eight-core CPU, to a quad-core (or even dual-core) CPU?
If I could, would the installation be normal or would I have to do anything extra? Modify the current slot or anything.
If I have to stay with eight-core, what would be a good step up to another good for gaming eight-core processor?
Thanks.
