I need help choosing a CPU that will

1. Not bottleneck my GTX 1050 ti

2. Will raise frames to at least 60 on high graphics ( not required but preferred)

3. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT!!! USES AN FM2/FM2+ SOCKET!!!

Some specs:
GPU: GTX 1050 ti
Current CPU: AMD A4 6300 Dual Core
Motherboard: A68HM-E33
RAM: DDR3

Any insight would be appreciated

Sincerely soyboy78
 
Name the games you will play. Running League of Legends at 60fps on high is an entirely different thing than running PUBG at 60fps on high. Second insight, name your resolution. Third insight, an FM/FM2+ CPU might not be able to achieve your goals, that was not a gaming platform.

The best CPU you could update to would be Athlon X4 860k. Is it worth it? That would depend on how much it costs you and on the games you want to play. Certain CPU dependent games won't run that well on it. It would be an improvement on what you have.

I plan on running games anywhere from Civ 5, to Overwatch, CSGO, and maybe dark souls 3. Would the best solution be to save up for a better motherboard, and buy maybe an i3 processor? I’ve heard that the i3 6100 won’t bottleneck my GPU, if I’m looking for a long time solution though what processor should I get?
