Hi people,
I want to do a full upgrade for BF3/Skyrim later this year but have started to wonder whether it'd be better to wait for Ivybridge and just buy a GPU instead.
E8400 OC 3.8Ghz
4870.
650 Corsair PSU.
My question is power, how much further can I go? I have a couple of LCDs if that's a factor but I can buy a new PSU as well if necessary.
I was also thinking when I upgrade next year I could add another card should I decide to game at higher res.
Thoughts?
Thanks a lot.
