Question Can i do something about it?

[ahmedmajeed25]

I got HP Z420
XEON E5-1620
16 ram DDR3 ECC
256SSD+500
GTX1060-6GB

Its really good build that my brother did for me 2 years ago..

HERE is the problem. I want to change the CPU.. The problem is my motherboard only support EXON cpus. Is there anything I can do about it I was thinking of i5 or even i7.
Or even maybe just MAYBE buy a better Exon cpu.

OPS: This is a gaming PC

I would suggest just get better Xeon and you will be good

Do you need a CPU upgrade? That Xeon isn't actually too sluggish. If you look at task manager while gaming, are you using 100% CPU?
