I am currently running these specs:
AMD A10-6800K 4.10 Ghz (Quad Core)
Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti (4GB)
16 GB RAM
MSI A78M-E35 Military Class Motherboard
1TB Harddrive
500W Power supply

New CPU, motherboard and ram. Anything short will do zero good. Your CPU is holding you back. There is no better CPU for that socket. All new CPUs now use ddr4

Can you lead me in the right direction, like links an names, it wil have to be micro atx and im on a budget so yeah

Supahos · Jun 3, 2017

What is that budget? On just those three parts you could improve performance some for $200ish and spend as much as $750 need a bit of direction

that cpu is 3.2ghz though... my current one is 4.2ghz turbo i'd like a fast one

Lucky_SLS · Jun 3, 2017

u can overclock it to 3.9-4ghz in that b350

Supahos · Jun 3, 2017

That CPU will lay your old one down and have its way with it. Speed means nothing. I could clock a modern Intel CPU at 2.5ghz and still beat your CPU

Ok now all i need is a reliable website that is close/in Australia and cheap. you guys know anything? preferably selling the 3items you suggested

Lucky_SLS · Jun 3, 2017

Is there a cpu without the cooler, i already have a cooler and i'd rather not spend an extra 100 dollars to get one

Supahos · Jun 3, 2017

The 1600x comes without one but costs more. Your cooler will need an adapter to hookup to that board. You can hit 3.6/3.7 with the stock cooler on the 1600
