AMD FM2/FM2+ best cpu

[idontknowhardware]

hello, I have a Gigabyte GTX 1050 and 8GB Ram, Windows 10, 64-bit.
my current cpu is bottlenecking my GPU, therefore i'd like to upgrade it, thanks in advance.

You may just want to invest in a new board. However, the AMD A10-7870K is a great FM2+ socket, but it's an APU, so you may not want that.

Best FM2 is AMD A10-6800K Richland 4.1 GHz (4.4GHz Turbo) Socket FM2 100W Quad-Core Desktop Processor

Those are the two best CPU's for the socket in terms of FM2 vs. FM2+ as far as I know.

Thank you for your reply,
Someone have told me to look into this one aswell: http://www.ebay.com/itm/AMD-Athlon-X4-860K-with-95W-Thermal-Solution-3-7-4-Socket-FM2-AD860KXBJASBX-/262491867018?hash=item3d1dbc078a:g:Hy4AAOSwGIRXaGiq

what can you say about this one?

plus, the CPUs I've suggested may bottleneck my GTX 1050? And if I ever want to upgrade a GPU, to an 980, would it bottleneck it then?

What CPU do you have now?

AMD only makes one CPU die for FM2+, and every CPU shares it. The CPU portion on the x4 860k is the same as is in the 7890k, just with minor variations in stock clockspeed. If you don't have one of the dual core versions, there's absolutely nothing worth upgrading to on FM2+ because they're all the same chip.

I have the AMD A8 7600, which causes me terrible FPS in games.
