I will definitely upgrade GPU in coming months, but for now? I want to change my over heating shit CPU.
Why not do both at once?
Go with a
cheaper CPU instead of a ~200$+ one, and put in a new GPU for the saved cash from getting a cheaper CPU.
Something like:
Intel Core i3-4130 Haswell (dual core, hyperthreading, 3.4ghz, 54w) ~110$
+
Nvidia Geforce 750 ~120$ (less power usage)
or
AMD 260x ~90-110$ (faster card)
A " i3-4130" is plenty for gameing at 1920x1080p, so should the GPUs aslong as you dont go crazy on the settings for the newest games out.
A setup like this would be complete overkill for something like CS:GO.
Cheapest and best performance for least price:
CPU: Intel Pentium G3220 Haswell (dual core, no hyperthreading, 3.0 ghz, 54w) ~60$
GPU: AMD 260x ~90$
= should more than enough for CS:GO
