Hi, I have recently come back to PC gaming and I'm using an old computer I had an i5 3330 (4 cores / 4 threads, 3,0 Ghz base, 3,2 GHz turbo), 12GB of RAM which I have updated with a GTX 1650 super to hold until the new Ryzen CPUs and new GPUs are available so I can build a more modern rig (I guess end of this year or early next year)
Once I build the new computer this one will not go to the thrash, I plan to move it to my second residence, were I usually go on weekends so I can play now and then when I'm there
I feel like the CPU is the most limiting factor of my current computer, and I see i can upgrade to an E3-1270 v2 (4 cores / 8 threads, 3,5 GHz base, 3,9 GHz turbo) for about 70€ if I get one from eBay
Do you think it's a good upgrade or 70€ is too much for the performance increase?
Thanks!
