Anyone have any suggestion for an motherboard and cpu combo upgrade from fx-6300 black edition and Gigabyte GA 970A D3P. I can be AMD or Intel and price range of 250-300. Also would go great with a GTX 1050 Ti SSC.

I already had some DDR4 memory in storage and thanks for these suggestion. Im thinking on pulling the trigger on Ryzen 5. Its exactly what im looking for, thanks for the help :D
 


don't go A320, that mobo doesn't support OC, better get a B350 / X370 mobo instead

Yea, i replaced the A320 with a Gigabyte AB350M because of the sata ports and number of ram slots
 


u should be fine then, have a good gaming experience :D (i hope i can save up enough money to buy ryzen like u, my 1050ti is bottlenecked af by the pentium)

btw if u need a gaming friend, u can add my steam :D
