Hy guys I wanted to know that I am using it 2500(non k) and wanted to upgrade to i7 3770k. I mostly do gaming and video editing

Will I be able to do 4k video edit and will it handle 3 or 4 years without any problem in gaming. Thanks in advance guys.

your better off buying the next gen of intel cpu. after they get all the bugs out of there 10nm production. and the next gen nvidia gpu. then try and reused the drives and other parts in your old rig if you can. changing out cpu and gpu every year when new stuff drops is a waste of money. the newer cpu there not much faster now when a new gen drop. there is a speed bost going from your old gen to the newest mulit core i7/i9 cpu.

yes, it should do fairly ok it is a worthy upgrade from a 2500

no, 3 - 4 years is too much to ask

that would take something like a 2700(x) from amd or an i5 8600k, i7 8700k from intel
