Alright so I am thinking of upgrading my gaming computer in the near future.
This has stemmed from a problem I had when switching over to my new case, I accidently bent the pins to my USB 3.0 connection on my motherboard. So here we go.
I'm looking to replace my motherboard, cpu, and eventually GPU.
My current motherboard is a:
MSI Z77A-G45
And my CPU is an intel i5-3570k
My GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127745
Now I consider my hardware pretty high end though I know that theres better out there. I'm asking for 3 suggestions on each, being the cheaper upgrade, affordable upgrade, and higher end/expensive upgrade. So I have stuff to pick from.
for motherboards I am partial to MSI, ASUS, And Gigabyte.
I am an NVIDIA GPU man myself.
I also do have a question about the CPU. Is it really necessary to go up to an i7 or is most of the load on the graphics card when playing? All help is welcome and thanks in advance!!!
