Get an i3 8th gen and you'll be better off faggot

I recently replaced mine with a Ryzen 2600X, couldn't be happier. It really was getting old.

will not fit on my mainbaord.

was the fps boost so enormous?

Planetside 2 was unplayable in any decent sized fight when on max settings, after upgrading I get a solid 60fps most of the time.

The CPU might work forever but if your motherboard stops working you'll have a hard time finding a replacement. Intel has changed sockets approximately 1 million times after releasing that particular CPU.

I'm still using the old Jow Forums's 'bang for your buck' build from 2011: i5-2500k, 560ti, P67 board, Seasonic PSU
