Hey guys, I've been toying with the idea of either upgrading my 5850 g.card or my old ass i3 530. I think I've decided to wait on the G.card as 5850 is still pretty decent and the 8 series will likely come out soon.
Anywho, obviously I'll have to replace both my mobo and cpu with this upgrade -so I was wondering if you guys think its worth jumping straight to haswell or getting the previous gen at the moment? I know I'm going to likely see an astounding difference either way, so I thought I'd leave it to the experts.
P.S. I'm only likely to go prev. gen i3 or current gen i5 - nothing too heavy (on the wallet )
Cheers in advance!
