I have a fx6300 apparently according to most sites, this bottlenecks my already installed gtx 950 ftw (even though my gpu usually has higher usage in task manager than my cpu) I plan on building a new rig next year as I've been having some issues with newer games. Until I can afford that though, I was thinking of possibly later taking advantage of cyber monday and getting a gtx 1060 or something like that just for a bit of an fps boost untill I make the big upgrade. Will it make any noticeable difference even though the cpu will bottleneck it as well? Thanks!
 
Solution
If the current cpu is already showing signs of limiting the current gpu, then getting a stronger gpu will not alleviate this.
Your next upgrade should be cpu/motherboard/ram combo.
