CPU upgrade

[Misteryman321]

I'm a working teenager (17) and i made a pretty decent amount of money over the summer.

 

I made myself a gaming PC.

After you looked at you're probably shrieking in horror saying "Why would you do that!" I understand it was a pretty stupid decision.

I have some cash left and tax returns are coming and i'm going to base a budget, no more than $500 to spend.

 

If i were to buy a new Mobo and CPU would this combination bottleneck my graphics cards?

My 8350 and mobo was from an older gaming pc i had gotten to save some money but now i want change those out and re-purpose them.

 

The new parts i had in mind was a Intel Core i5-6600K and an Asus H170 Motherboard

you should get a z170 if going for a k model

You might want to grab the Z170 mobo instead of the H170 for overclocking the 6600K.

I don't plan on Overclocking, i don't see any real use. with my current setup i'm getting 40-70fps on GTA on max settings...i feel i should be getting more for a Crossfire Setup. Should i just get a normal 6600?

In that case, grab the base 6600 and you'll be onto a winner.

Yeah, your CPU is bottlenecking those 390s.

 

If you're not overclocking, then a 6600 is the CPU for you.

If your not going to overclock dont get a K series CPU.
