This is mainly for Fallout 4. I meet the system requirements for everything else (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760, 8g ram).

MSI MS-7350 model motherboard. Very old motherboard so basically I'm trying to figure out if I can get a decent enough CPU upgrade that will work with my current motherboard or if I need to just rebuild.

This computer is for gaming and the benchmark is Fallout 4. I meet the system requirements for everything else (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760, 8g ram). Thanks.

you're really at the top end cpu for that board. you could try and get the E6850 which is 3ghz but being honest I wouldn't see the point.. you could buy a cheap motherboard, cpu, ram bundle and have more of an upgrade
