CPU and Motherboard for £200-£240

Bolton_99 · Oct 4, 2014

Hi there.

I'm looking for a CPU and a motherboard for around £200-£240. I have a few in mind kinda but I need this question answered.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S I use a GTX 670 and I don't know if it will get bottlenecked with certain cheaper GPUs (like AMD)

AMD doesn't bottleneck very often. Unless you get a cheap CPU, but that's your fault. Anyway, an FX-8320 and ASUS M5990FX R2.0 PRO is the best you can get. Maybe even bump it up to an 8350!
