Upgrade question

[Kopla]

Hey all,
i'm going to be upgrading my motherboard and CPU next week and was wondering if anyone had any ideas if it would run on ultra at a steady 60fps, or just any suggestions to possible other replacements for the Motherboard and CPU, Budget for those 2 parts is $250

Current setup:
CPU: AMD Athlon II x4 630
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6850
Motherboard: MSI 760GM -E51
RAM: 12gigs

Setup im asking about
CPU: AMD FX-6300 Vishera 3.5GHz
Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 6850
Motherboard: MSI 99XA-GD55
RAM: 12gigs

Thanks, Kopla

I know this is a bit over your budget, but it's significantly better.

For two hundred dollars and fifty dollars I would get a amd phenom 2 965

My friend has the same amd and his FPS never falls under 60fps with everything set at ultra except shadows on a 1080p monitor 23 inch monitor.

For motherboard you can get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128565 or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813157280

and then use the rest to buy some DDR 3 ram if you have ddr 2 ram here is some gskill 16 gigs http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231534

Depending on which motherboard you have already you can keep your ram and MB and save yourself the 150 and save up later for a next gen cpu and gpu build.
