I want to upgrade from my i5-3330S and I was wondering if upgrading to an i7-3770 or an i5-3570 would still be viable for gaming in 2018.
I'm running with a pre-built PC from somewhere around 2013. I put a 1050 Ti in there about 6 months ago and it can run modern games well. For example, I can run FFXV on low settings at 1080p 60fps. The fps can fluctuate at times, but it's bearable
I'm not looking for 4K performance or anything. Just as long as I can run games adequately at 1080p 60fps
My specs are as follows:
(I don't know specifics about the parts, but I have a link to the specs): https://uk.hardware.info/product/211308/asus-k5130-uk007s/specifications
Mobo- Intel H61 chipset
Processor- i5-3330S
RAM: 8GB DDR3
PSU: 350W
Am I going to have to get a new motherboard and processor or will a new Ivy Bridge processor be fine for gaming? I'm aware that I will most likely have to upgrade the PSU either way
Thanks for reading and help would be appreciated
