hello guys!!
I play a lot of bf3 and i believe it is cpu intensive in multiplayer mode.
Currently
I have a h55 intel board which allows me to oc the i5 760 till 3.5GHz(with vol at auto) with turbo boost enabled In single threaded applications the first core goes up to 4.0-4.1 Ghz.
There is no stability problem in playing bf3 but i have been getting occasional bluescreen and .exe stopped working errors in some other games such as hot pursuit and darksiders.
So i am thinking that the default voltage must be insufficient at certain times,leading to instability.
My question is
should i buy a decent 1156 mobo and overclock the 760 to maybe 4.2-4.3 ghz ,i mean how much performance boost can i see in bf3 with core clock going from 3.5-3.6 to 4.2-4.3 Ghz (i game at 1920x1080)?
Or
should i go for ivy bridge ?
or
should i wait for hashwell ?
