Im looking to upgrade my current rig which Im still rocking socket 939. here are my specs:
AMD ATHLON 3700+ 2.2 STOCK OC'D TO 2.8
ASUS A8N32 SLI DELUXE MOBO
2GIGS OF DDR 500 CORSAIR XMS MEMORY
580 WATT HIPER INDUSTRIES PSU
2 RAPTOR 74GIG DRIVES RAID 0
EVGA 7900 GT NVIDIA GPU OC'D OF COURSE
Now what i want to know is if i upgrade my CPU to a OPTERON 170 2.0 GHZ STOCK and overclock to 2.7-2.8 will it be able to handle CRYSIS cpu wise? Of course i will be upgrading my GPU to an Nvidia 8800gts 320.
Any feedback is appreciated...just need my system to last about another 1 year or 2.
