Hello!
I recently bought myself a 1440p monitor. Sadly, I got quite ahead of myself, considering I cannot run anything above League of Legends / Diablo in 1440p on a satisfying FPS (certainly not shooters like Rinbow Six Siege and BF4 where I'm only getting around 30 FPS in 1440p with moderate settings...)
At the moment I'm unsure if it is the CPU, the GUP or the RAM that needs upgrading for me to get a major FPS boost. Here are my specs:
GPU: GTX670 2GB
CPU: Intel Core i7 950 (1st gen?!) 3,07GHz
RAM: 12 GB DDR3
If I'm upgrading my GPU, it will be a GTX970 since it seems to be the most "bang for the buck" atm (Won't use AMD since I have a G-Sync monitor). Will this help, or will this only lead to my old generation i7 becoming another bottleneck?
