What are we we upgrading from?

your ram is the issue with getting you into a ryzen 3 they are all ddr4 along with alot of boards and the FX platform is the top of the $150 mark right now thats a 8 core instead of the 4 cores you have now it should give you better performance.

 

 what gpu are you using it might be your bottleneck ?

whats the current problem your trying to get past with your system? i think the 1050ti and that cpu are good for most 1080p gaming the FX platform.

Just trying to get more FPS I looked at vids on youtube of the 8350+1050ti and it seems to be so much better

the 8 core is realy the only upgrade you can do without getting new ram and basically building a whole new computer.
