Cpu, mb for under 180

[wakogriff]

Hello I want to upgrade my current amd 8350 cpu with an intel cpu but I only have €180 so could any recommend me a cpu and motherboard for under €180?

i would really suggest u hold unto the 8350 for a bit longer and save up, while the single core performance of that CPU is bad, it's still capable enough for normal usage, plus, the €180 won't get u anything better than that [since u need DDR4 RAM, mobo, and CPU]

if u really need some extra performance, try OCing the CPU instead...

Agreed - there is no point in upgrading the older AMD platforms unless someone is literally giving away a faster CPU for it.

Save up to the point where you can afford to move to a modern platform, be it Coffee Lake or Ryzen, with DDR4 memory.
