current set up
M4A77TD PRO
radeon rx 480
phenom ii x4 965
gpu was bought just a few months back, but as i was gaming i keep experiencing sudden lag/drop in fps. i read somewhere that the cpu might be bottlenecking the gpu so i started monitoring the usage. gpu usage average is around 40-70%, where cpu is always at 80-90%. So probably my cpu is having trouble keeping up? with my current motherboard is there any good cpu i can upgrade to? or do i need to upgrade both for a decent upgrade?
Thanks
