Hey does anyone have any suggestion for upgrading you cpu, I currently have a AMD FX 8350

What applications and/or games are you running; do you feel your system is underperforming, and if so, how? Do you have a budget?

You could look at some CPU+Motherboard combos. I would steer away from spending money on an old socket type since you have the AM3+.

Go AMD if you are looking for budget but if you want to switch to Intel, look at the i5 9400f. Priced right now on amazon for $147.99 but of course you would need an LGA1151 board.

The games are cod warzone, apex legends. I researcher the compatibility of my current cpu and the gtx 1650 super, and there is sever bottle necking. Maybe 90-130$

... and DDR4 memory

Maybe 90-110$

That's rough. There is no CPU you can buy for your existing motherboard that would give you an upgrade.

Your budget will buy you a solid motherboard, though:

Then save up for a CPU and RAM

8GB Ram:

https://www.amazon.com/HyperX-3200M...4&qid=1586917188&sprefix=8GB+,aps,180&sr=8-15

Perhaps you could look at your local craigslist for a used Ryzen 5 1600 (about $60) and used 8GB DDR4 ($30)

This will be a MASSIVE upgrade for about $200 if you are willing to have patience to find used parts.

Definitely nothing that will make cod warzone faster.

Depending on your resolution and graphics quality it can run well.
