Hello there first time poster long time reader here. I have a couple of options I am thinking of but not a ton of money so just wondering which would be the better fit. First off I am a gamer and game for many hours a day playing all sorts of computer games.
I currently have a AMD Phenom II X4 965 black edition which is OC to 4.0 Ghz which on the mother board Asus M5A97 with an xfx 6770 graphics card.
I am getting 22 fps on low settings in a new game I am playing called Wildstar, yes I know its only beta but I have friends getting 100 fps easy in there so I know its obtainable. I am wondering if it would be better of my money to upgrade to a good graphics card in the 400 dollar range even with my mobo only have 2.1 pci express slot or if it would be better to get a i5 or i7 oc it and have a mobo with 3.0 pci express and get a gtx 660. Thank you so much for your time and input.
