So i bought this asus cg5275 used and everything works fine, but i think my cpu is a bottle neck for my gpu is an gtx 1050 and when i play fortnite its okay i can go to highest settings for 60fps on ultra i get 50 to 40s but stutters so about my cpu its an COREi5 650 up to 3.20 ghz dual core with hyperthreading. So can i get this cpu Core i7 860? ik it will fit, but will my bios be able to support it? the bios is pretty old like 2010 and i looked through asus support and they do not have the latest bios.
 
Solution
From what I'm seeing, I think that may take a P7H55-M motherboard.

Go here.

All the BIOSes are here.

You can even go with an i7-880.
