Iv got a question about motherboards and something else

MrAlanSmith · Dec 22, 2014

If i got a cheap motherboard and put it with a AMD FX 6300 what would happen?, Iv been told the motherboard iv got is rubish and its downgrading my performance, What does that mean?, Losing fps? or?, My pc is fast and plays games well so what?.

What motherboard will be good for AMD FX 4130 & AMD FX 6300?

Ill be upgrading from a AMD FX 4130 to a AMD FX 6300 soon but not very soon because iv been told my motherboard is garbage and is downgrading my performance but what does that even mean?..

What motherboard should i get?, What is the price range?, Will this improve my performance or not and if not then its not worth it.

I do admit, Now and again randomly my fps goes low then jumps back up again but its about random times on LOL and SWTOR but thats it.

Thanks guys!!

Here's the deal, uograding from 4 core fx to 6 core fx will show little if any gaming performance increase. When running multiple programs yes you will see some benefit. Speaking of mother boards, since you seem to be on the lower end of the PC expert scale, I'll assume you don't overclock. That being said, as long as the motherboard supports your chip, theres very little difference between boards. If your going to upgrade, get a better graphics card. That's what will actually get you more performance in games.

How about posting what you currently have in computer and how much money you have to spend on the upgrade and well tell you where to out the money for most performance increase

Why is everyone different?, Im hearing all kinds, "The AMD FX 6300 will make your performace better", Now im getting "No it will not make your performance better" I dont understand at all...

AMD FX 4130 3.8GHz
Sapphire R7 260x OC (Updated driver)
8GB DDR3 1333 MHz
Asrock N68-VS3 FX (Updated bios)
500w powersupply (Dont want to take out right now)

Yes i know the motherboard is crap/garbage but i dont really see a performance decrease...., The new AMD driver made my gaming better, It was nice to see the improvement from last drivers.

those are both lower quality FX CPUS. if really want to stay with AMD and want to move to 6 cores then go with the 6350. find a decently rated\reviewed 990FX motherboard. provided link below
that is also a low quality GPU you are using so even if you get a really nice CPU that card will be holding back your gaming.
