upgrade cpu to AMD FX-9370 or AMD FX-9590 Vishera

[fivefour.xone]

is my motherboard f2a85-m compatible with those CPUs

no both CPU's are the wrong socket. the FM2 boards are meant for APU's the motherboard is FM2
both CPUs are AM3+ socketted

you can upgrade but you will require a motherboard change to support the above CPUs.
if you have to replace the board I advise getting a newer platform than either the motherboard or the CPUs listed.

what motherboard should i upgrade to thats cheap i have ddr3 ram

define cheap.
both the chips listed above are 220W units and will require a motherboard with the VRM to keep up. you will also need a good high quality PSU if you do not already have one. add to that a liquid cooler and the prices start increasing rapidly, scarcity is also raising prices.

what are all your current specs?

my specs are
amd a10 5800k - cpu
430 watt - psu
8x2 ddr3 ram
ASUS F2A85-M miro atx - motherboard

was think to upgrade to
ASUS M5A78L-M PLUS/USB3 AM3+ AMD 760G (780L) / SB710 USB 3.0 HDMI Micro ATX Motherboards
with Gigabyte (N105TOC-4GL) 4G GTX 1050 Ti OC Low Profile PCI-E VGA Card
and a new psu to this Thermaltake (PS-TRS-0550NPCWAU-2) TR2 S 80 Plus 550Watt Power Supply Unit
or this
Aerocool RAVE 80 600Watt Power Supply Unit
and mabe
AMD A10 7890K A-Series APU with Radeon R7 Graphics And Wraith Cooler 4.1 4 AD789

if i cant get the above cpu to work out

^ no mate , that board is am3+ for fx chips


Your current board can run the 7*** series apu's or the athlon 860/880k


There is no point though because any fm2+ chip is only going to be 10% stronger max on the cpu performance.


Just drop a 1050ti in the build you have now & call it a day.

is my psu strong enough?

 

[madmatt30]

What model psu exactly ??
430w would point me to a corasir cx,evga b1 or maybe a tnermaltake??

But yeah the 1050ti is a 75w card , a 430w psu is more than enough.

i was also thinking to upgrade my CPU to an AMD A10 7890K A-Series APU will my PSU handle it as well as is it compatible with my motherboard?

my psu is an antec truepower trio tp3-430

 

[fivefour.xone]

will this cpu AMD A10 7890K A-Series APU with Radeon R7 Graphics & Wraith Cooler 4.1 fit my motherboard ASUS F2A85-M miro atx

 

[R_1]

no it is not on the support list.
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/F2A85M/HelpDesk_CPU/
this is a list of ALL the CPUs that will work in that motherboard

 

[madmatt30]

Already said this - its pointless upgrading the cpu at all.

You already have a3.8ghz quad core in there , the newer chips on that socket are not noticeably stronger.

Just upgrade the gpu , that will be a massive improvement over the integrated graphics.

The psu is fine for a 1050ti.
