Hey everyone. I was wondering what I had to gain and if it would be worth while to upgrade my mobo/ram/processor. I'm currently using the AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE (oc'd at 3.8) paired with two 5850s.
More times than not my CPU is the bottleneck. Would it be worth upgrading to an intel i5-3570k / mobo if I happen to catch a good deal around the holidays?
My backup plan is to wait maybe 9 to 12 months from now and do an overhaul and get a high-end graphics card to pair with it, but I realize my graphics cards are still acceptable, all things considered.
I mostly play Planetside 2. Although the game is terribly optimized (which they are addressing as we speak), it does favor intel, along with most games given the single core performance.
Think it's worth it or should I wait? Thanks.
