I have an I3 4130, 8 gig ram and a Gigabyte GTX670 Windforce 2 gig. Is it worth upgrading the graphics card? I just bought Just Cause 3 and it's a little sluggish. Thinking of spending around the £150 price mark.

Thanks in advance.

Just Cause 3 lists the minimum spec as an i5 - so is it possible your i3 is just not up to the job? I know it's still technically 4 cores due to it having HT but it's still not going to perform as well as a true quad core CPU.

True, I did however watch a youtube video that showed the gaming difference between an I3 and I5 was 10-15% so I thought it was not THAT much of an issue.
