I've stumbled upon a couple hundred bucks ($300 to be exact) And decided to put it towards my PC. But I'm at the dilema between graphics cards and CPU's. 70 of it is already going to some better RAM (1866 Mhz) but the other 230 is being tossed between a new CPU, or going with a new GPU. If I go the GPU route its a battle between the GTX 660 or the Radeon 7870. But If I go with the CPU route it's gonna be a i5-3550k.
What should I pick for the better performance upgrade? Current specs will be posted below
CPU: i5-3470
GPU: GTX 550 Ti
RAM: 1333 Mhz 8gig (BRANDUNKOWN AND REASON WHY IM UPGRADING)
MOBO: Gigabyte F2A 75M D3H
PSU: Visiontek 800w
HDD: Toshiba 1TB 7200 RPM
If you have any other suggestions on how to spend it feel free to share
