I’m not very experienced with computer parts and so on so I decided to ask you guys, I have a Intel core i7-4790 and was looking for a upgrade because a lot of newer games are stuttering for me and I check my usage on task manager and I’m assuming it’s my CPU causing it due to it almost being at 100% usage. I’m wanting to stick with Intel but wanting a more affordable upgrade but will last me another 4 years like my current one has.

    That was the best CPU for your motherboard socket. So upgrading the CPU will mean a new motherboard and possibly new RAM depending on how new you go. As far as specifics go, any midrange new Intel or AMD will be a big improvement.
