As the title says, I want to upgrade my PC but my budget is kinda low
My system:
Asrock a75-HVS
AMD Athlon II X4 631 @2,8GHz
8GB DDR3 1333
GTX560ti 1GB
550w xilence psu

I've been thinking about buying an used i5 2500k/4460 +mobo or a FX8350+mobo.
I will upgrade my gpu too since it would bottleneck the cpu but that can wait.
 
Solution
i3 6100 yes
z170 yes
8gbddr4 try to looka t 2400 mhz ram speeds theyre cheaper and the fps difference is 0 or 1
powersupply upgrade
graphics card/ new graphics release in june keep your eyes peeled or jsut ask :)
prices in the us are cheaper than europe but this should fit in your budget.

I think i'll go with this:
i3-6100
Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3P Intel Z170 So.1151 Dual Channel DDR4 ATX
8gb ddr4 3200
i keep the gtx560ti for now, i can get a 960 for 150€ soon
what do you think?
edit: this build should be future proof because i can upgrade to i5 or i7 skylake +ddr4 ram
 
no its not good,poor quality its manufactured by hec.

also keep in mind that if u insert a new motherboard you need to buy a new windows lisence HOWEVER, contact microsoft ive heard from multiple people that if theyre ina good mood they give u a new one for free.

unless you got a full retail version of windows than u can reuse it:)

from what website are you buying, i make sure i keep an eye out for your wallet.
