Yes it will be about a 30% CPU upgrade. I wouldn't really recommend it, it would be better to sell your graphics card and get an RX 480, and worry about the processor when you can spend enough for change to skylake platform.

Thx for the quick response... I would get new graphics card but my girlfriend bought me the graphics card for my birthday lol XD.. So that in mind i am going to wait don't want to get the woman factor irritated lol... Around march i am going to fully upgrade... or I should say make a new-build... I was thinking on a i7 6 core and gtx 1080 have not decided on a ram size thou.. But the one Q thou i need answered is would the fx-8320E be a good upgrade from my phenom II X4 945? I understand you said only 30% upgrade so is there another cpu that is better 8320? What I mean by better is amd not intel...My board can only handle 95watts for cpu...
