What motherboard do you have at the moment? It may be easier (And you would likely get better performance) by upgrading your current CPU. The FX series aren't as good as their specs seem.

Main Gaming Rig:

Core i7-4770, Cryorig M9i Cooler, ASUS B85M GAMER, 8GB HyperX Fury Red 2x4GB 1866MHz, KFA2 GTX 970 Infin8 Black Edition "4GB", 1TB Seagate SSHD, 256GB Crucial m4 SSD, 60GB Corsair SSD for Kerbal and game servers, Thermaltake Core V21 Case, EVGA SuperNOVA 650W G2.

Secondary PC:

I have currently this MOBO  WIBTEK H61-M HDMI2 it has the 1155 socket.The CPUs of this socket are too much prised so i would like to change mobo.Also im not looking at specs but on benchmarks.I was planning to get an i3 4130 with a motherboad and 4 GB of ddr3 for 120 euros.Whan i saw the performance on games the FX 6300 could handle the "battle" very well , it won.
