Hey there!
I currently have a adm athlon II x2 270 ,running at 3.4 GHz
So that means I have a AM3+ socket , correct?
I would like to upgrade
So , could you tell me if it would be worth it? Possibly a example of the performance increase
I have a AMD radeon 7770 GPU
The amd fx-6300 or amd fx-6350 looks pretty good , opinions?
Thanks!

I have a 760GM-P21 motherboard and on the official website , it says "Socket: AM3+"

???
 


The board supports the FX-6300, but not the 6350: http://www.msi.com/support/mb/760GMP21_FX.html#support-cpu

The FX-6300 would be a big upgrade, just make sure you update the BIOS before changing the CPU.
Download the newest BIOS here: http://www.msi.com/support/mb/760GMP21_FX.html#support_download
