Basiclly the title.I will use the pc for gaming. Is the upgrade worth? The gpu will be GTX 1050 or RX560. Thanks!

No. It's not even an upgrade.

It might be time to consider a new platform if the current system isn't performing the way you want it to.

Not worth the money. would be a very small upgrade almost sideways. Save your money till you can upgrade to a newer better platform(cpu, motherboard and ram).

 

[Fire&Cold]

But do you know a better cpu for FM2+ socket?

There are no FM2+ cpus worth upgrading to from what you have.

Sadly I don't think so.

Basically a new platform will be a better choice, an a huge bump in FPS, if budget allows it, something like the following can also be upgraded in the future:

PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ykLvr6

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2 GHz 6-Core Processor ($99.14 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M DS3H Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($70.88 @ OutletPC)
Memory: G.Skill Flare X 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($63.99 @ Newegg)

You could save 35 bucks, give or take, by going with only 1 x 8GB stick and get the exact stick later on for dual channel setup (not recommended, but is posible).

I would personally have recommend the Ryzen 5 2600 for $120 and the Asrock B450M Pro 4 which is a better board overall for overclocking or the 12core 3900x and is usually on sale for $70 at amazon and newegg or $80 otherwise.

np with that, I just choose the cheaper option (R5 1600) and my mobo pick is because I know that Gigabyte board and it does the job fine up to an R7 3700X.
But yeah if the Asrock has a better VRM then thats the way to go. I doubt OP will buy a R9 3900X later on, but who knows right ?

Cheers!!!

Thank you for all your answers! I will stick with what I have until I got the money for a new combo. Guess I will buy when Zen2 will come out )
