Hey, I've got a budget build gaming pc at the moment and I've found a deal online and want to know if the upgrade is significant enough to go for.
Present:
I5-2500k
780ti 3gb
20gb ddr3 ram
gigabyte ga-z68ap-ds3
How much of an improvement would it be if I replaced the gigabyte ga-z68ap-ds3 and i5-2500k with:
I5-4690k
Asus z87 plus motherboard
Is this an upgrade worth making on a budget? (I can buy both for a total of about £150 right now)
or is there something better for a similar price?
Also I'm not really very clued up on the whole generations in terms of how much improvement they bring etc. The reason for the upgrade is that I have access to a closed beta game to play on my stream, and the game is pretty optimized right now and I'm struggling with FPS (between 20-50fps) I know that this may not fix the issue however if the upgrade is significant enough it won't matter as It will last me longer and it's pretty cheap considering I can sell my mobo and cpu and recover some of the outlay.
Any help appreciated.
