Actually I have tried putting a 6300 but the mobo seems to be forced to run in single channel mode, while on the other pc the fx 6300 runs just fine. I was looking at the AMD Phenom CPUs that were listed as supported and I was hoping someone would throw some light on the matter because I am...

While I have considered that, I don't want to spend as much because that would mean rip the 16 gigs ram, the mobo and the cpu all together and to get those for ryzen platform would mean that I'd have to invest around 220-250$ to get it going and for the ram, cpu and mobo I could probably get...

So currently my mobo is running with an fx 4100, I kind of want to upgrade but it appears due to the low tier this mobo is, it's pretty picky when it comes to CPUs. Which CPUs would you guys recommend? What is the best CPU supported by that motherboard? I did try to put fx 6300 but the mobo does...

Your GPU is at 1070 performance, heck, even an 8350 will be bottlenecking but I'd say 6300 is a decent choice, 6100 not so much.

Let's say it that way, you will be able to play every game at 30 fps but changing the graphics to minimum or ultra won't make any bigger difference than 4-5 fps at best. The gpu will still render just as good but the total fps will be lower. To be fair, I had fx 4100 with 1060 which should be...

N68-VS3 FX , that's what I assumed too so I put https://www.asrock.com/mb/NVIDIA/N68-VS3 FX/#BIOS 1.80 from here, which is the latest ever released, it was successfully updated but that did not change how it behaved and it still looks like that https://prnt.sc/oyoeng I am also fairly aware it's...

So, I got an amd fx 6300 upgrade(from 4100, found a good offer for 20$, I am perfectly aware that this isn't a particularly high price for the 6300, they go around 40$ most of the time) and when I swapped the CPU this one only detects one of the sticks, the other is listed as "hardware...
