Upgrade suggestions (Quad Core) cpus under 150$

[NeoTech52]

so i currently have a intel pentium g3258 with dual core and gaming isnt really good for me with this so i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on any quad core cpus thats under 150 or any quad core cpus (lga 1150) that can play current gen games (maybe under 200 if there isnt any thats below 150) and can still play current games with high settings? Thanks in advanced.
Here is my mobo and my psu supply:

What games are you trying to play? What video card do you have? How do you know your CPU is what's holding you back?

Games for example black ops 3 fall out 4 and my video card is a gtx 750 ti geforce sc and i know my cpu is holding it back because i was able to to play well with a AMD Athlon ll 645 quad core and gtx 750 ti together on black ops 3 really well like at medium/ high settings but now with the new Intel Pentium i cant play it well barely at low even at pentium g3258 @ 36

i would look at the second hand market: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Core-i5-4690-Processor-6M-Cache-3-50-GHz-Quad-Core-PC-CPU-SR1QH-/401123568604?hash=item5d64d3ebdc:g:gDgAAOSwrb5XPiOM

Even better, an i7 equivalent: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon-E3-1231V3-Quad-Core-BX80646E31231V3-Processor-/262449906941?hash=item3d1b3bc4fd:g:RukAAOSwMHdXQkHZ

I know it's not a quad core, but an i3 is a large improvement over the Pentium. If you can swing it though, go for the i5 4460 because although the i3 handles most games well, it is starting to reach it's limit in some games (eg Rainbow Six Siege, GTA 5 etc).

Intel Core i5-4590 - $200

Is your G3258 overclocked?

Intel Core i5-4590 - $200

Is your G3258 overclocked?

no its not and when i try to overclock it it seems to drop to 2.6 ghz and yeah this pentium isnt really good for the current generation games

Core i3 4xxx or Core i5 4xxx are both great options. i5 5xxx will also fit in your motherboard, but is probably not the most cost effective upgrade.

THis is your best option: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/psR48d/intel-cpu-bx80646e31231v3
Do teh upgrade right so it'll last you as long as possible. Totally worth teh extra 40.

It is basically an i7 4770 without the integrated graphics and alot cheaper: http://ark.intel.com/compare/80910,75122

The second hand market (ebay) is usually the best way to go for those upgrades.
