Hi guys, im quite new to fiddling with the insides of computers myself and therefore i was looking to get some help deciding what CPU upgrade i should get.

My motherboard is an ms-7673 (P67A-G45 (B3))

I have found this site with compatible CPUs so if any of you guys would be so nice to guide me in the direction of which of these i should be getting for the biggest improvement (im a gamer btw)

Thank you so much in advance and have a wonderful day :)

quick edit: for some reason the link will not fully light up so if you want to use it just fully copy paste it :)
