System Specs

Help deciding on a processor upgrade.

I know it dual core but it faster than 3800+ AMD 64

Would this work on a rx480-a ECS mainboard

Which one would be the best investment.

Hard saying, I think Bullseye69 needs to do some more reading up on what's compatable, know more about what he has, and do some research. Kind of a murky post for asking for help on that one.

Feed more info Bullseye, such as your system specs, a good link to your Motherboard (preferrably in english, at least for many of us), what you're expecting to get out of this upgrade, and even your budget. All these things can help us to assist you. But I suggest you help yourself first by knowing more about what you have and what you want. Otherwise the help you seek will be vague since a vague question was asked, and that link...well read the first couple of posts after yours...
