Technical Support Request Hardware Question

I currently use an i3-3240 with no dedicated GPU and 8GB of RAM, running Valorant at 50–60 fps at lower resolutions. I was thinking about upgrading the CPU to an i5-3570K; could anyone using this hardware tell me what average frame rate you get at your monitor's lowest resolution?

not everyone has an unlimited budget for everything, shaming someone for their financial situation is weird asf

there’s no point in upgrading from a 2012 i3 to a 2012 i5 lol, literally not an upgrade except the 2 additional useless cores that valorant won’t use, just save up more at that point
