Hi im not much of an expert on which CPU works with which motherboard. But i currently have a AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and i currently am thinking of upgrading my CPU and want a better CPU something like a Ryzen 9 model if possible. I play Rust which prioritizes the CPU and also for other games and also work on things that require a bunch of processes to be open at the same time. Here is some specs from my CPU i got from speccy down below and also each "•" is a new category

There is no Ryzen 9 processor that is compatible with your PC's Erica motherboard.
What you have is the issue of using a prebuilt PC and a barely passable video card for gaming.
I have the same processor you do, but in an MSI MPG X570 Gaming Pro carbon wifi motherboard.
It is a beastie processor when coupled with 32 GB of installed memory and at least a higher end NVIDIA RTX video card.
I am a volunteer forum member. If my suggestion solved your issue, help others by marking that post as the accepted solution. Say thanks by clicking on the Yes button next to the "was this reply helpful?"
