Yeah I'm gonna bottle neck the crap out of my card until 2 weeks when I get paid again for a better proccessor I have a Amdc Fx 4300 Going to a 6300 Trying to stick with amd because it's cheaper than intel
 
If you're planning to use an FX-6300 on that motherboard, I would not. It's poor quality and is not suitable for use with FX6 or FX8 core chips.

And if you're going to have to buy another motherboard in order to upgrade the CPU, I'd step away from AMD as you can get a much higher performing Skylake LGA 1151 i3 for a similar price, PLUS it give you an upgrade path to an i5 or i7 later, AND an estimated two future generations of LGA 1151 chips that are slated to be released in the future. MUCH better option.

Something like this would make a lot more sense, although it WILL require a moderately higher investment since you'll also need DDR4.

That configuration will best an FX 8 core chip in just about everything aside from a handful of video processes, mainly encoding and a few 3D graphics programs optimized for more than four cores. Even in some encoding tasks, the i3 beat an overclocked FX-8320E.

If you want to be able to reuse your current RAM, then this is also an option, although not quite as good as the Skylake i3, the Haswell i3 still beats that same FX 8 core chip in almost everything, while using less than half the power.
