Hey guys,
I built my system last year with the following configuration:
Motherboard ---Msi X48C
Processor---Intel E8400 (not overclocked)
Graphic card---Crossfire 4850--512mb ram
Hard Drive---WD Raptor 150Gb with Seagate 250gb
Monitor--- 22inch Dell
Ram--DDR3
My question is that i have been looking at the performance of the i7 processors from Intel, and i am thinking that should i switch on to that platform in the near future, or is my rig going to be good enough to Game at my monitors optimal resolution.
I am basically a RTS gamer with a few Racing and FPS games.
Do you guys think that my rig is going to be good enough to play games like Empire total War etc.
Also my PSU is a 640 watt Corsair .
Should i be happy that my system is powerful enough ? Should i convert to the new platform sometime in the future or its not worth it ?
Thanks for the response
