Should I upgrade my i5-3570K to an i7-3770K?
I have an Asus Maximus V Extreme motherboard, which can overclock CPUs automatically.
It currently overclocks my Intel Core-i5 3570K (stock is 3.40 Ghz) to 4.4 GHz.
I was considering upgrading the CPU but since the motherboard only supports LGA 1155 CPUs, the only real upgrade is a 3770K.
Look at the chart I made below and help me decide if I should upgrade the CPU.
When OC'd, I can imagine it'll hit 10,500.
