Hello, I was reading many of the other posts across the forums. I am trying to decide what to get for my computer. I want to upgrade my CPU, but I lack the knowledge to get something worth the money. I am currently trying to decide between the AMD FX 4350 or the AMD Athlon X4 860K. Most of the other forums I have read just say to upgrade to an i5 or the FX 6300. However, I do not have quite enough money to spend on a high-end CPU. I am currently looking at around 150 dollars for a CPU and a motherboard.

My current specs:
- AMD FX 4100
- AMD R9 270 PowerColor 2GB
- EVGA 500 B
- Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2 Motherboard
- AZZA 202EVO Case

If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it. I am currently using my PC to play games, but 60 fps is not a requirement for me. I just want the ability to play games at 30 or more fps. Thank You.
