Trying to decide if upgrading my Athlon X2 6000 (3.1 Ghz dual core) to a Phenom 955 (3.2Ghz quad core) would actually make a noticable difference in gaming (especially swtor).
Running a Radeon 6870 1Gb @ 1920x1080 and things just seem generally bottlenecked.
I assume a complete upgrade to an i5 would be definately noticable but that means new motherboard and memory whereas the Phenom will work in my current DDR2 board.
Any thoughts welcome.
