Hello! Your setup includes an AMD A10 7860K and a GTX 1050 Ti, with a Deepcool Maelstrom 120K cooler. You're considering upgrading your CPU cooler and wondering about the maximum possible CPU overclocking. Your motherboard is an F2A88XM-D3HP. Also, you're curious if this will improve your gaming performance, especially in games like GTA V.

It's unlikely to be worthwhile, as the CPU is quite outdated. The optimal choice depends on your temperatures and stability needs. Previous AMD models before Ryzen had poor core performance, so just adding more cores doesn't guarantee improvement. Additionally, having a GPU integrated reduces the strength of the CPU part.

I wouldn't recommend spending more money on it either.
