Hi,
Recently my video card died, so I would like to buy a replacement. I was thinking of 7970 or a 7950.
I have a AMD phenom ii 945 with its respective AM3 socket (not am3+) Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H motherboard.
I think that most likely my PC will be bottlenecked and I will not get the most performance of the gpu because of my processor, so I was thinking in maybe also upgrading the CPU.
Due to my CPU + Motherboard combo, going for the AMD FX-8350 would require to buy a new motherboard as well as going for the Intel i5 way.
But, do you think that right now is a good moment to invest in a CPU? is something coming in the next months that could deserve waiting for it with a bottlenecked system?
Thank you very much!
