What's the best CPU for the GTX 1050?

[TechyAlex]

So yea as the title says im gonna buy a gtx 1050 (not Ti)and i want the best fx cpu to go with it at around 100 or less (i know fx series cpu are dead but i cant afford anything better)so what's your suggestion?
P.S:i forgot to say that im gonna game at 768p but im gonna go 1080p at the future

You need a 95w CPU, the best ones you can get are the FX-8320e and FX-8370e. The "e" at the end is important, without that you get the 125w version which will NOT run properly in that board.

What happened to your i5-6500 based system you asked about? That is FAR better to be spending money on.

Ah that sounds good but will it bottleneck the gpu or not and for the i5-6500 PC build was for my older brother to upgrade his old computer and now im gonna use his old computer parts to make my pc 😀

Oh and i was thinking about the fx-6300 cpu is it any better than the fx-8320e or 8370e?

It is a minor bottleneck, one that which you will likely never notice in gaming except maybe in CPU intensive games like Battlefield 1.

Oh and i was thinking about the fx-6300 cpu is it any better than the fx-8320e or 8370e?

No it is not, its a similar CPU with 2 less cores. The 6300 may be easier to find, the 8320e and 8370e are less common.

So fx 6300 or 8320e then... and which one will give me better performance at least 1-2 frames more

There is no way to judge that. The 8320e may perform better in a game that can utilize all 8 cores. Otherwise they should perform reasonably the same.

Ah ok thanks alot again!!!
