Hello, I have run into major lag issues on my pc, specifically in skyrim. Right now I have a $250 to get either a gpu or cpu and am wondering what one and what model to get. I would like to to run skyrim at medium-high settings with this upgrade. Here are my current specs

Current specs:
Gpu-GeForce GT 730
Cpu-AMD FX(tm)-4300 Quad-Core processor
8.00 GB RAM
Windows 8.1

i would switch to intel, skyrim likes fast cores a gpu upgrade will make it look better but it will suffer from stuttering i know this first hand with a friends pc he had a 760k and a 960 and it stuttered like hell switched to a i3 and it was gone with higher frame rates as well just need to save 50$ dollers more and you will be ready to buy it i really suggest you take my advice and switch this is coming from a amd person for a long time
