So yeah my processor is bottlenecking my whole system. My computer runs amazingly until I start to run a game like overwatch, fortnite, and PubG. It's because my CPU cannot keep up with my system I believe. I'm going to lay out the general of my specs and I need you guys to help me choose a good replacement, I can spend up to $200 on a new CPU so just launch some good ones at me. ;)
Here are my Specs:
Processor: AMD A6-7400K Radeon R5
Speed: 3.5 GHz with 2 Cores
RAM: 8.0 GB
Video Card #1: AMD Radeon(TM) R5 Graphics
Video Card #2: Radeon RX 560 Series
OPS: Windows 10
That's the basics if I need to post anything else just let me know!

CPU: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($86.88 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($39.99 @ Amazon)
Memory: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($69.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $196.86
The best you can do with $200. Id recommend, if possible holding on for a few months, save some more money if you can and then buy a Coffee Lake Pentium with an H310 motherboard once they launch. It should be around the same price tbh, but you should get slightly better performance and youll have a MUCH better upgrade path.
