I have a budget build PC from 3-4 years ago and it's beginning to become slow. I upgraded to a new graphics card and it got relatively faster. I felt as if it should have been a lot faster though. Reading some articles, I was told that the graphics card could only handle what my CPU would allow. So I am thinking of upgrading my AMD Athlon X4 760K to a Intel Core i5-8400. I would like my games to run at decent graphics with a 60+ framerate. I am also going into graphic design so I am hoping the upgrade can help programs run faster too. It is a $170 upgrade and I'm a college student so that's a decent chunk of money. I can refund it but the computer store is 40 mins away and I would really appreciate not driving there and back 40 minutes because I had no idea what I was doing. Thanks for the help!
