What is the best CPU for AMD Radeon R7 250?

[ReeDoK]

I have a Radeon R7 250, and I want to upgrade the CPU in the future. What CPU should I get?

What do you currently have? Inf act what are you current specs? You can pick up an i3-6100 or the 7th gen counterpart and be good for some years though how long will depend on what sort of titles you play and at what resolution.

I have a very old PC:

CPU: Intel Pentium E2180 2.0GHz
RAM: 2GB RAM
PSU: EVGA 500W

I have to upgrade my motherboard and RAM memory, too.

I want to play games on 1080p, but 720p it's okay.
About games... well... Battlefield 1, Watch Dogs 1 & 2, Project Cars... games like these.

List your specs as:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
OS:

You're going to have to get something current gen or at least one generation older but that in itself will be a hefty investment. None of the processors I mentioned will go along your system since you're on an LGA775 board. that socket died almost 8 years ago.

Yeah you're going to overhaul your entire system, in fact you should follow through this thread, and post a followup in this thread.

What about your case?

I am sorry, but I can't say what case I have. This build was bought 8-9 years ago. I don't remeber the name of the case. But I think it's okay, since it has a good ventilation. However, as you said, I need a full upgrade, except PSU and HDD, I think they are good.

How old is the PSU?

How old is the PSU?

I bought it 8 months ago, I had no problems with it. Also, it is quiet.
