I need help finding a cpu upgrade im looking for a lga 1150 socket cpu to upgrade from a intel g3258 pentium. Just give me some options with a range of different price points preferably a quad core or something with hyper threading.

ok then you should get a i5 4670k, i5 4690k, i7 4730k, i7 4770k or i7 4790k

would any of these be a bottleneck with the 2gb veersion of the gtx 1050

all of these cpus would be more than enough power to run a gtx 1050 

ok thanks i thingk im gonna settle on the intel core i5 4690k overclockable 4 threads 4 cores seems pretty good compared to my crappy 2 cored 2 threaded pentium although i can clock the pentium up to 4.5 ghz the i5 only goes to 3.9 ghz

yeah i'm pretty sure you can overclock it higher than that but even if you cant it will be so much better.
