as far as i know.. it will... more in cpu intensive tasks.... i suggest you wait for ryzen (3)

Yes/no, in most games it will, it much more gpu intensive games it won't. If you want to play battlefield 1, rainbow 6 or gta 5 you would be better off with a cpu upgrade

Oh jesus...

 

Just wait till you can afford an entire system. 

I have seen FX-6300's bottleneck 1060's so yeah it probably will.

 

i would rait for ryzen 3 and use that + a 470(570) or 480 when you can afford it all.

Upgrading 1 of the 2 (cpu and gpu) will lead to limited performance gain due to bottlenecks. Just buy the one with the best deal / discount first then save money for the other.

 

BTW, upgrading such an old CPU means upgrading the motherboard as well. Because the CPU is so old, you will need to change both together.
