Greetings,
I am considering an upgrade to my computer and I dont know if its worth upgrading.
Currently I have:
Asus M5A97Pro,
Phenom 955@3,6Ghz, 1.3V,
4GB DDR3-1333MHz Kingston CL9 kit 2x2GB.
Zotac 460GTX 768MB
Fortron Blue Storm 500W
I was planning that with the announcement of Nvidia 660 cards I might upgrade to kepler. The thing is that currently I am stuck with an old 1280x1024 monitor. I want to switch to FullHD gaming and I dont know if the CPU wont be a bottleneck for the new VGA. I wanted to purchase a new cooler like Hyper 212+ and OC the CPU to cca 4 or more Ghz. Throw another 4gigs of RAM in there and it might be good for another 2 years.
Im just not sure if I will use the full potential of the VGA with this computer and also if I will be able to run games like Battlefield 3 maxed out and new games that come out in the next year or so.
Thank you
