As of right now, the performance of my games are pretty unsatisfactory for the most part. Some of my friends are running games better than I am with parts that could be considered lesser than mine. I am looking for a good CPU to balance my EVGA 1060 6gb because right now I am noticing high cpu use with low gpu percentage; around 90% cpu and around 10% gpu. Is this a bottleneck, and will this upgrade make sense at all?
The games I play are pretty much any AAA title and games like Rainbow Six Siege and more.
My system:
MOBO: MSI B250M
GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 6GB
CPU: Intel i5-7500
RAM: 1 stick of 8gb DDR4 at 2400mhz. Another stick is currently on the way.
PSU: Corsair 650W gold
Also, will my mobo support this cpu with overclocking? I am only looking to game in 1080p 144hz.
Thank you all in advance for the help.
