What is the smart choice of CPU + Mobo intended to run games, 3d modeling, and photoshop?
I have a rig that I have been trying to upgrade, here's my specs:
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 (2.33GHz)
Mobo: Intel DG41RQ
Memory: 2G DDR2 PC2-5300 333Mhz (x2)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2G
PSU: Corsair GS600
I've just upgraded my GPU and PSU so I'm looking at the other parts on how to upgrade my rig for the said uses.
I'm willing to buy a new case if a suggested MoBo is bigger than the DG41RQ.
Thanks!

Note: I found Intel - Core™ i7-3770K Processor and GIGABYTE ATX Motherboard 2666MHz (Socket 1155) and I think it's ok. Any thoughts?

Hmm, Those stuff required alot rendering so for best performance in less time look for i7 3970k basically rendering requires more processing units meaning more cores better performance but if you can afford to buy otherwise 3770k is best one.
