I have been having a few issues with games and fps drops and just overall sluggish, so I just want to upgrade. Should I switch over to intel? Maybe with an I5 4670k, or save some money stick with AMD and crossfire something? Just looking for some suggestions. Will also be switching to ssd for boot and main programs and upgrading ram to 16 gigs. Thanks for the help.
