Hi! i've been looking for information to upgrade my GPU to an nvidia gtx 1060 6gb for a better high end gaming performance, but i'm afraid my CPU is quite a problem... I've been thinking about upgrading my CPU as well, but my socket is an AM3+, which i think is only compatible with AMD processors and I would rather have an Intel because they have best performance in general as far as I have seen...
So, problem here is if my actual CPU will bottleneck the Nvidia, and if it really does, what is my best option? To search for a better AMD processor or directly change mobo and processor to be able to have an Intel? I would really want not to spend more than 500€... and the less, the better, but of course I would rather spend 600 and be sure my rig will be enough for 2 or 4 years rather than spending 400 and having to change procesor and/or mobo in 1/2 years...
Thank you for your time!
