Hi, so this is my first post ever in here and I kinda dont know alot about hardware but here goes.
I currently have:
Motherboard: Asus P6T.
CPU: i7-930 @ stock and stock cooling.
GFX: Asus GTX 660 ti
Ram: 12 Gb KingstonHyperX @ 1600 mhz
I play games like GW2, Crysis, Arma ect. and I am not able to run these games on max settings without a significant FPS drop (I do not enjoy playing games at 30 fps.)
I have been thinking of two solutions:
Solution 1:
Buy a GTX Titan and watercooling for my CPU that I could then OC.
Solution two:
Buy a GTX 680, a i7-3770k and a new motherboard (also would an i5-3570k be an idear?)
I am a little unsure if my current CPU actually needs an upgrade, I hear alot of people claiming that the i7-series are all so powerful that they are not even capped out yet but on the other hand, I can easially get my CPU to run at 80% usage and I am worried that solution one would just cause me to have the same issue on 6 months time..
And when I look at benchmarks of i7-3770k vs. i7-930 there is a huge leap
Please help
