Looking to upgrade my gaming PC
Phenom 970 black quad core
6970
gigabyte mobo (should support whatever it's fairly new 2012)
850 w power supply
1 ssd and 4 tb hard drive
I was thinking about getting another 6970 but I suspect my CPU will bottleneck.
When I got my CPU I was under the impression games don't use more than 4 cores so I don't know if buying a new amd cpu will help.
Maybe it's just not worth upgrading without going intel? (Which is basically buying a new computer)
Thanks in advance
