fastest cpu for my motherboard
« on: February 09, 2013, 09:58:04 pm »
I have a gigabyte 880GA-UD3H motherboard. I am thinking about upgrading from a phenom ii x4 925. I want to know the fastest cpu this motherboard supports right now. I want to see a difference in games.

You didnt mention what revision # your board is.
Here's the link for the board. Click on your rev# and then click on CPU support.

It would appear the the Phenom II X6 1100T is the top cpu.
Asus Z270 Prime A/i7- 6700k / Corsair H110/Samsung 850 Evo SSD 250gig/3x Seagate 1tb Storage/16 gig Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2800/Asus GTX 1070 8GB OC/Corsair AX 760i PSU/Logitech Z-5500 Sound/Win 10 x64 /Corsair 780T Case/48" Sony monitor/

It depends on the games if the CPU would have an impact.

If you are playing FPS games then the video card would have the biggest impact.

If you are playing  strategies that need big AI calculations then maybe a new CPU would help.

Indeed a X6 could be a nice investment
