So, since 2011 I've had a Intel Pentium CPU G860@ 3.00GHz, I am thinking of upgrading to an i5 3570k or something better around 250-400 dollars, I have a GTX 750 TI for a graphics card. How much of a difference will this make? is it worth the upgrade? thanks.

Also, is my GTX 750 TI being bottle necked by current crappy dual core?

I would suggest the 3570k as its probably the best you'll get for around that price on 1155 socket, if you had an 1150 socket I would have suggested the 4690k, as its better and only 240 on newegg. but that's a whole different upgrade as you would have to swap out your motherboard aswell. but yeah! 3570k is a great choice for your board and about the gtx 750 being bottle necked, im not to knowledgeable...

I really hoped this helped and sorry for the late answer
