The title says it all.
My old CPU sux and it pretty much died and i wanna get a new one,but i dont wanna buy a CPU that will bottleneck the 270X.
So,can you suggest some CPU,both AMDs and Intels (please no AMD FXs and Intel i7s,cuz i pretty much spent all my saved money on this GPU,and have just enough to buy a new CPU)
Thanks in advance :D

For 200 euros, get the i5 4670k, the i5 4690k is 20-30 euros more. Unless you were talking about 200 euros for the cpu and the motherboard. If so, get the FX-8320, which will leave you around 65 euros for a motherboard.

Why do you want an amd phenom II? The card can work with any CPU just fine, it doesn't have to be AMD.

Why would you want a Phenom II? That'd be a bottleneck.
If you need a new motherboard as well, for 200 you can get a motherboard and cpu.
What country are you from? that way I could look for sites and stores that sell computer hardware and recommend you something within that budget.

That's why he asked what your budget was. ^^ The fx-6300 is for 95 euros and it's better than the amd phenom you listed.

In France, and I just found their website which tells you where you can buy the parts from: http://www.alti.rs/index.php?option=com_content&task=vi...


I know but im far away from those towns..too lazy....I think the 1055t is enough and it can arrive in 2-3 days. i have an am3 socket mobo which is needed for the 1055t.If i wanted the FX 6300,i would need a new am3+ socket mobo...

Where are you ordering from? And well, I guess the 1055t shouldn't be too bad, but I'd suggest you overclock it so you can get more performance out of it, get a cheap air cooler like a hyper 212 evo and it should do the job.

I ordered the Hyper 212 EVO with it..It is gonna arrive with the 1055t in 3 days..I would overclock it but my Gigabyte M52LT-D3 mobo cant support overclocking I think....

I just thought of something, montenegro is in the EU... So you shouldn't have any trouble ordering something from another country in the EU, I mean there wouldn't be any customs fees.
