I plan on purchasing this Friday(black Friday).
Gaming Build
Austin,TX
Overclocking:Maybe
SLI/Crossfire:NO
Tower is a...
I'm trying to upgrade these two components to get away from my APU build. Would like to beef things up for some better performance in games (BF4, ESO, BFront3). Although i do not currently own a top end graphics card, this is a progressive build. I do however own an ok graphics card that fits PCI express that will carry me over till i upgrade my power supply to handle a stronger graphics card. I've heard that newer games will now support more than 4 cores, up to 8. Would something like this be of use for gaming? As far as the MOBO goes, i cant see any reason why i would need more than 16gb of ram or multiple PCI-E slots. I suppose the main limiting factor would be if the MOBO has the space for a larger graphics card.
