So lately i've made the decision (after 10 years) to upgrade my 10yr pc seeing as i've grown tired of running low graphics on a game that is not guranteed to run with my current hardware. Anyway my current cpu is amd a6-6400k (2 threads and 2 cores) but the thing is a cpu with 8 threads and 4 cores may not even run on my pc as my current hardware is old and kinda bad.
this site here: https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/Asus-A88XM-E/7254#Build
has some possible builds for my pc however the cpus it recommends are either pretty outdated or have 4 threads and 4 cores. what i'm interested in is knowing whether my pc can run a cpu with 8 thread and 4 cores and what changes i need to make for it to not burn my motherboard or pc.
and as always i dont know how to upload images or files on this site regarding specs for my pc/motherboard etc.
