Hey guys so I haven't been able to answer this question myself online so I thought I'd ask some questions.
Currently I have an i3 3220 and I'm thinking of buying a used i5 3470 for $100 because my i3 is really starting to bottleneck in battlefield 1 and other new games too I imagine. I was wondering if I could just use the stock i3 fan for my i5 since the used doesn't come with one. And also when I upgrade my cpu do I need to do anything software wise? For example when upgrading gpu recommended to uninstall drivers of the previous graphics card. I was thinking of updating bios but I would only do that if I need to, I hear sometimes updating it causes problems so yeh.. Thanks in advance guys!
