Worth upgrading my counsin from a i3 2120 to an A8 8600

[adn44]

Currently my cousin is gaming on a pc with an i3, a gtx 660, and 4gb ddr3. He mainly plays fortnite and is looking to get into overwatch & csgo.

I recently acquired an A8 8600 (for free) and was wondering if it wouild be worth the upgrade. Ideally id like him to use it for a year or so. Im also considering selling his old cpu and mobo to buy a better amd cpu and get him more ram.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you in advance!

You would be downgrading his PC.

Right it's a downgrade. The only amd worth getting is ryzen otherwise intel has been better for gaming since sandy. Any fx or apu should be given away for free. That's a joke because you got it for free.
