My specs:

Cpu - Amd FX 4300
Gpu - Msi GTX 1050 2gb oc
Ram - 8gb 2000mhz

I get around 45 on watch dogs 2. 60-45 on gta v with high-low settings. Wildlands beta is running like crap tho. Low med settings is 35-45. Elite dangerous on ultra at 45-120. Wwe 2k17 at 60 fps while fighting. Inquisition at 60 fps on medium.

Im curious if i have to upgrade to get 45+ or not. Or If its just worth it to play on xbox one... I cant upgrade right now. But will get an 8350 when i can.

Yeah im starting to notice more and more games come out that run laggy for me. Maybe if i get a good cooler and over clock to 4.3 or 4.5ghz. My tower is a bit to small for a hyper 212 evo. And i dont trust water cooling yet. Or maybe i can just find a new motherboard and intel processor for cheap.

Not sure I'd throw any money at the 4300 depending on the motherboard and lottery it may overclock well or it may not do much if any. Depending on the motherboard an 8350 maybe a bad idea aswell. Going Intel or Ryzen would be the best option if/when you can afford it.

Im not that worried if i have a few frame drops or skips. As long as it runs halfway well 45fps+ not 144fps 4k vr ready lol. Not worried about getting ryzen. I just said i cant upgrade right now and maybe i could eventually find a cheap motherboard with an intel processor, as my motherboard is amd3+ only and only goes up to 8350. Not $600 for just the processor. No thanks. 8350 was recommended specs anyways, which means most likely andromeda was halfway optimized for it. If i could afford ryzen right now i wouldnt ask about a $50 fx 4300 which i already have lol
