Hi, I currently have a pre built PC my grandmother bought from best buy. (Amd 4-core 2.2ghz garbage. I put in a new PSU (430w) HDD, and I just bought a 1050 ti, but I'm not satisfied with the performance; I play overwatch averaging 60fps. I'm looking to spend about ~$300 on CPU and motherboard together. I plan on using this PC for overwatch, and maybe some light video editing. 

 

I was looking at the i5 7600 and the AMD FX 8350, but when watching a LTT video, he mentioned that the ghz didn't matter or something. I'm not sure, I just want a reliable cpu.

Also, If someone can drop an affordable case down in the description that would be great (:

 

 

Thanks guys and gals! 

- Levi

for gaming a 6600 k is definitly all you need.

Bow down to me humans.

I can't help if you don't quote me. How am I supposed to know if you need my premium support? Now starting at £399.99 a year.

Also, be a sport and mark the correct answer as the correct answer. It will help pour souls in the future when they are stuck and need guidance.
