I recently got some money and am planning to upgrade my cpu but I am not sure which one to buy. I really want to get better performance on battlefield 4 and also skyrim. Most games I play on 1600 by 900 resolution on High settings with shadows on medium. Currently in Battlefield 4 I am enjoying an improvement in frames per second, more than I did in the last game. I get anywhere from 35 to 70 fps with the average being 47. However, I do feel that sometimes the game is choppy and If my fps was higher I would be having much more fun in the game and If I could run the game on ultra settings that would look so much better with the new 1080p monitor I just ordered. In skyrim I enjoy using the various graphical mods but the performance is altered with them on as my fps goes down to 25. With no mods on I get fps from 45 to 60 on high settings with some on ultra. I really would want to make skyrim as graphically beautiful as possible and hope to buy a cpu that can handle that.
edit: If I wait for Black friday would I be able to get a really good deal on a cpu and motherboard combo?? My current motherboard would not be able to handle a cpu better than the fx 6100, it would probably fry it.
My computer:
MSI 970 g46 motherboard
amd fx 6100 cpu
8 gb of ram
Sapphire radeon 7950 3gb graphics card
CoolerMaster 550 watt power supply
