Upgrade from G4560

[TeoPap]

Hello and happy new year to everyone . I am new to this forum and also my hardware skills arent the best . Anyways , so 2 years ago i got a pc with gtx 1060 3gb / G4560 / Corsair value select 8gb ram 2133mhz / Gigabyte b250M-ds3h . Over those 2 years i saw some performance problem in new games because of my cpu . However im trying to upgrade my cpu and (if needed ) ram and mobo . My budget is up to 250Euros.

 

Regards,

teo

Look for used i7 6700's or 7700's on Ebay.

That's the same mobo as my brother, and I've wanted to get him an i7 for a while so I'd recommend that.

If i buy 6700 , will i need to change mobo or ram?

nope, and if you were changing motherboard I'd recommend Ryzen instead

Yup the only investment worth the hassle here is a second hand i7 6700 or i7 7700

If i cant find a used one , should i buy a new one?

It'll depend on the price really... If you start looking at too much spending I'd actually hold to the G4560 until Ryzen 2 launches and see what the market has to offer by then while keep saving... might end up a better route get both a new motherboard and CPU by then from either new AMD offerings or Intel cutting prices on Coffee Lake to compete.

If it came to that then I guess if you weren't willing to upgrade to a newer platform it would be okay, the chances of that are slim though since there are thousands of those on sale on Ebay.

It costs 300 euros . But i think i can wait till new cpus get released . I just need a cpu that with the cooperation of gtx 1060 will run every game with 60 fps and mostly the new games that are coming
