I know nothing about Motherboards and CPU’s. What I got right now is what came with my computer and other than my sound card and my tower itself (lol) is the only thing I have not up upgraded.<\/p>\n
The mother Board is a H8-1414 and the CPU is a : AMD 6120 Six Core.<\/p>\n
I don’t know jack about motherboards, but my other hardware is Radeon r9 280 for graphics if that is important at all and I just upgraded my Ram, so now I got like 24GB of ram I think now from the 10 the computer started out with.<\/p>\n
I don’t know anything about what a Benchmark is or what that means,. but there are two things I do know.<\/p>\n
1. More cores = better. The way I figure it is that more cores the better! I want an eight core of some kind, I know that much.<\/p>\n
2. Higher Benchmark = better.<\/p>\n
So, with that in mind, I need a CPU that has a much much higher benchmark that will hopefully cost me under $400.00 and a much better motherboard. Not because I think mine is bad, I am sure there is nothing wrong with it, It’s just that it is the only thing left to upgrade unless I want to spend another 500+ dollars on another graphics card for no apparent reason.<\/p>\n
I need suggestions on what to get.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":6},"question-category":[47],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-7143","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-hardware"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/7143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=7143"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=7143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
