I would suggest another step first: Buy an SSD to increase your system performance. They are currently not that expensive, especially when looking on its lifetime. My suggestion in SSD with avery good all day performance is the Samsung SSD 830 model. I never heard any of my friends regreting this buy!
But if your cpu is really bottlenecking, someine please post some suggestions as it is also my interest to upgrade from my i7 920, because I would like to have more raw power. My cpu closes @ 4 ghz and getting a little unstable. Another question: What is currently on the way to the markets. Should we both wait a little?  |
Thx for answering Stublreone!
Well Neither my CPU or GPU is fully loaded when playing CLOD but arent most games like that? Or is it just the bad coding from the game coders part?
When comparing my CPU on various websites my CPU is not even on the list of good gaming CPUs now a days... Why is is that my CPU is still considered good then? Why wouldnt a new Gen I7 boost my performance (I know about hyperthreading not being used in games)? Doesnt an overclocked I7-2700k to 4Ghz perform better than a I5-760 overclocked to 4Ghz?
Thx and best regards
