So I have a really crap PC right now:
Intel G3220 1150 Dual-Core CPU (IK dont judge)
AsRockH-81 Mobo
8 GB of DDR3 Ram
R7 370 2GB OC
160 GB 7200 RPM boot drive with a 1TB WD Blue Drive
What I'm really after is an upgrade for my CPU and potentially maybe have to get a motherboard along with it. The easy route would be to get a 1150 i5 and call it a day, but I've been seeing lately a lot of used Xeons out there being used for some pretty killer budget PCs. I've seen the x5650 and the E5-2670. These though have pricey motherboards. I want to stick to intel, but AMD is coming out with Ryzen soon. Are there any good budget AMD CPUs out there? Or should I look into getting one of those Xeon processors? Keeping in mind that I want something that would be able to play BF1 or BOPS 3 1080p Maxed out at 60.
Right now My current build runs BOPS 3 at Medium 1080p at 60, but I really want to max stuff out and that is just not capable on my build. Thanks For your Time
