For the last few games I've played (AC Unity/GTA V) I've been able to shoot up my graphics and maintaining the SAME frames per second as I had on my lower settings.
I was told that my CPU was bottle necking. I guess my CPU can't keep up with my GPU's capabilities?
Here's what I have:

Here's what I think I want

Here's what Rockstar recommends:

So here's my confusion. I'm seeing AMD CPUs where it'll say (3.4ghz) with a price higher than the 4.2ghz I'm looking at. Rockstar's suggestion is 4.0-4.2ghz 8 cores, but the one I linked is $60 cheaper. I think I'd rather go with 4 cores for now, is this really going to make much difference from 3.4 to 4.2?
