Disclaimer: this might be very long so bare with me.
Hello everyone, I have a lot of questions with my current build and I feel that this site would help me a lot. First of all, here is my current build.
Mobo: Asus m5a88 v-evo
CPU: amd fx 4170 4.2 GHz
Gpu: evga gtx 550 to
PSU: not sure but is 80 plus something ( not gold) and 620 watt.
Ram: corsair vengeance ram ( not sure of name but is red and is at 1600mhz)
So, I am thinking of upgrading my GPU to a evga gtx 760 sc w/ acx cooling. I was wondering if my CPU will bottleneck and if I needed to get a new CPU and what CPU should I get. I am also getting a cm hyper 212 evo or plus. I was also hoping to try to oc my fx 4170 to try and meet to the 760's standards. If I were to change the CPU, would it be better to choose the amd fx 8350 or should I get a new mobo and an Intel CPU? If so, recommendations would help. Also, I am on a budget so don't get too fancy with the CPU and mobo. That's about it and anything helps (mostly). Thanks and excuse for the grammar, spelling etc. I was in a hurry.
