I'm an MMO(RPG) gamer by heart and I only play RF Online(for now) but would love to try other newer games if I can build a better PC.
There's a war system in RF Online(Its a RvRvR game) where there are about 100+ players in a single location moving, attacking each other and it gets laggy and even unplayable in clashes. A half second lag in clashes will mean death and I don't want that to happen.
Here's my CURRENT PC:
Athlon II X2 250 dual core @ 3.0Ghz
ASRock N68C-S UCC Motherboard
HD 7730 DDR5 1GB (1024x768 monitor) - NEWEST PURCHASE
2GB RAM @ 800Mhz
600W PSU that comes with the case
This PC is 4.5 years old and I bought a 7730 months ago to make gaming a bit better.
Now I want to upgrade around the 7730 because its the best hardware I got. I'm not into ultra high settings gaming. I'm used to playing at low-med in most games but i would want to play RF in high settings and a bit of headroom when playing other games in mid settings. I just want to play smoothly when things ingame are chaotic, I don't want to lag for half a second.
What kind of CPU do I get? AMD with more cores? or Intel with better raw performance? I'm thinking Core i5 4670K? Consider also power consumption because I don't do extreme gaming.
What build should I go for? My typical use would be: long hours of gaming while downloading stuff, FB, watching movies, surfing the web(opening many tabs at once), reading articles while RF is running in the background, moving files around and other fun stuffs to do with a PC. Would want headroom for things i want to try like encoding video, archiving files fast and some other pretty basic stuff.

Its totally unplayable. FPS seem to drop to <10 when there are 30+ people around that are active.
