It is time for me to upgrade to a more powerful processor for gaming. I downloaded Speccy and I found out that i have a M2 Socket. If anyone has suggestions for a processor that would be compatible, it would be much appreciated. Here are my computer's specs (copy and pasted from speccy directly). I am mostly confused with what my motherboard is compatible with, and if it will require a different motherboard to actually get something worth while for gaming. Thank You!
