Better CPU Solution

[patriciaSrp123]

Hello I am seeking a better CPU for my A68HM- PLUS mainborad. Any suggestions? And please let me know about the buying process too

Better CPU compared to what? What do you plan on running with it?
Unfortunately that socket is a bit of a dead end.

 

[Deathangel008]

better than what for what? other hardware (RAM, PSU, graphics card etc)? budget?

aren´t there enough english forums for questions like this?

FM2+ Socket.
Just look in any shop for CPU's with that one and buy what you need.
AMD Athlon X4 860K might be one of the best.

Here are the possible CPUs. The higher the number, the faster the CPU in most cases. What do you have so far in your box?

But! It might be a X-Y-problem. The CPU might not be responsible for the slow PC.

doesn't makes sens to me. to burn money on this plattform.

You get an Ryzen 5 1600 AF (6C/12T) for ~100 bucks.

but yeah - let us know for what you need it

Hmm wich CPU are you using at the moment?
The best new CPU for that old Socket wich is currently available is the AMD A8-7680.
The fastest CPU is A10 7890k or Athlon x4 880k, but I found no reseller. So maybe take a look on the used market.

This platform is pretty old and the best CPU for it is the Athlon X4 880K which is even beaten by the Athlon 3000G, an APU which you can get for about 45 pounds. I would switch to a modern Ryzen in every cause.

first of all, if you have one of the following (and some other cpu's as well) there is no upgrade for your board, otherwise:

860k, 870k, 880k if no integrated graphic needed
7870k, 7890k if integrated graphic needed
good place would be ebay e.g. as no longer produced

otherwise the cheapest newer solution to take would be sth. like:

You get an Ryzen 5 1600 AF (6C/12T) for ~100 bugs.

Naw, that would be an Intel. Unless you meant to say bucks, that is. ;-)

 

[Subjekt18]

100 bugs? Intel is premium, at least 400 bugs!
