I need a new CPU

[greenwolf24]

I need to get an upgrade for my computer.  I want to be able to play Watch Dogs 2 but my CPU doesn't meet the requirements, I currently have an A6-7400k.

Few things first.

1. It has to be AM3+
2. My price range is about 80-90, but can be made somewhat more flexible if needed.
3. I know absolutely nothing about OCing

if you could take estimates, how well will this work for Watch Dogs 2?

what settings do you think i might be able to reach?

i have to use AM3+ because at the store i go to, they have an offer where i can get the motherboard for $5.  I wont be able to afford an upgrade other ways.

well thats most likely a motherboard that does not sell well. which in turn does not sell well for a reason.

  personally   I would wait for zen  beginning of this next yr to see what Ithe has to offer. but if you want a  cheep grade now on the cheap fx8350 is a good cheap solution for am3+.  I have been running most games one high to ultra with a gtx 780sc at 1080p 70+fps   with no over clock.
