Alright guys, Looking at CPUs atm (last thing i really need for now) but ive done some research, and my motherboard (MSI A78M-E35 V2)only has a FM2+ socket. from what i can see, the best card i can get that suits, is an AMD Athlon x4 880K.
2 questions
Is that CPU good enough to get good FPS on AC/iRacing etc with my Radeon HD 6970 GPU? (50+ ill be happy with normal-high details across the board)
if not, recommend me a motherboard and CPU setup that i could swap out for quite easily? (maybe $500 limit, but willing to hear more expensive options)
Im soo close, yet this last hurdle is a touch out of my knowledge base.
TIA
EDIT: This is another that would be compatible with my MoBo, any good?
AMD A8-7650K 4-Core 3.3GHz APU Processor
Am i right in thinking i dont NEED an APU unit, as im using a seperate GPU?
