Hi guys - I'm looking to upgrade my HTPC. I Currently use it for Kodi and Hyperspin. (Dolphin emulation and PC games)
Has the following specifications.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H Rev 1.0
CPU - Athlon X2 250 3Ghz
RAM - 4GB DDR3
HDD - 250GB SSD
PSU- 850W
Using integrated ATI 4250 HD
I'm looking at getting a GTX 1050 Ti 4GB as it seems to be a decent card for Dolphin emulation for the price.
Looking at the CPU list https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-880GM-UD2H-rev-10#support-cpu it looks like the FX CPU's aren't supported. What would be a good Phenom CPU to go for that isn't going to break the bank?
Would the Phenom II X4 965 BE be a good shout?
Many thanks
