I recently got an ASUS Geforce GTX 960 2GB and I was wondering if I should upgrade my CPU and mobo because both are old models already(had it for 4 years). Although, I am still able to play some of the latest games with my current configuration.

I really want to do an upgrade already because I know that I will be bottlenecking my PC due to the fact that I have a low-end CPU and mobo. I am already using the 960 for about a week, mainly for games, and It's been going great. Any suggestions on what CPU+mobo I should buy to prevent bottleneck?

Current specs:

AMD Athlon ii X2 250 3.0Ghz
ECS MCP61M-M3 v2
Geforce gtx 960
4GB
Corsair VS450

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
