Consider an i7 or i9 that fits your ASUS Z370 motherboard. Check compatibility before deciding whether to stick with AMD or explore other options.

I usually suggest AMD to someone who hasn't even installed the motherboard or CPU yet. With your Z370 board, update the BIOS and purchase the most affordable i7 here: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/cpu/#s...61&f=85,90
