    If you’re not willing to get a new motherboard don’t bother with the CPU. Your current CPU will be close enough with a 4060ti so just enjoy some games and don’t worry about it

    Honestly – your 9400f should be ok. You’ll get 80-90% of the performance of your graphics card. That’s not the end of the world. You’ll be good until you can upgrade cpu/ram/mb down the line.
