Just wondering if someone could help me out.
I currently have a non 'K' edition of the i7-2600 CPU and was wondering if I would notice much difference in selling it and getting an i5-3570K / i7-3770K. I play BF3 and will be playing BF4 in the future and other FPS games mainly.
I have an after market CPU cooler (think it is an Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E SE) so a basic overclock would be possible also.
I am also in the market for a new GPU (currently have an EVGA 570 SC) but I wonder if the extra money used to upgrade the CPU would be better spent on buying a slightly better GPU or will my current CPU struggle with a single 7970 Matrix/TOP, Sapphire R9 280X Toxic OC or an NVIDIA equivalent...
System:
Intel 2600 CPU (not K edition)
MSI Mpower Z77 Motherboard
16GB Ram - Can't currently remember what speed / manufacturer.
2 x Samsung 840 SSD
Corsair HX750 PSU
Many Thanks,
Dan
