I have recently upgraded to an AMD Radeon 7970, but me being the idiot that i am, forgot about my horrible cpu. So i can still play some games, but i need a better cpu. Also i only have 6g of ram, and the're not very good sticks. I want to upgrade my cpu to an intel one. However that means that i need to upgrade my motherboard. That also means i need to upgrade my windows because i have an OEM. That also means that al of my data will be deleted. Is that last part true? So my question is, any mobo, ram, and cpu suggestions that will go good with my gpu. (btw i plan play bf4 and splinter cell and stuff like that and also record if possible). I also might want an ssd, but i dont know.

First off, you don't need a new OS because it is saved on your hard drive not the mobo. What Cpu do you already have on your pc?,And my other question is, what is your budget?

But i have an OEM version of windows, doesn't that mean that i have to replace my OS if i upgrade my motherboard? I have some amd A6 quad core procesor. My budget is about $400 but i can go higher if needed.
