Updating the processor on the server?

Question

Processors

Lord good afternoon.
There is a server for mysql. It was acquired a very long time ago (about 5 years ago). During this time, the database has grown from several megabytes to several gigabytes. Well, of course, online has increased. After a while, I periodically optimized sql queries. But right now it's useless. And the percentage is packed almost to the eyeballs.

Question. I want to buy a more powerful percent. And preferably the most powerful one that will rise. Can you tell me which one is the most powerful?

Answer 1

It’s better to update the entire server at once - there will be more sense.

Answer 2

Isn't this a normal system with i7?
It's easier to buy a real server with a powerful xeon, ala 10+ cores.

Answer 3

I googled for you and found a list of processors compatible with your MP .
