    TomsHardware needs to fix their GPU table.

    Now this is of course pertaining mostly to Kepler and Fermi. I have benchmarked in two games the 580 vs the 670. EVGA GeForce GTX 580 FTW HC2 on air cooling (custom with a factory OC of 850mhz with 4200mhz memory clock. vs EVGA GeForce GTX 670 SC reference with a boost clock of 1176mhz and...

    Is it worth upgrading my i7 950 without getting a newer mobo

    Intel XEON X5650 is your cheap solution to the 980X, the XEON is in fact better.

    upgrade gpu or cpu

    New CPU, your 280x is already bottlenecked.

    Csgo high cpu usage

    It's pretty normal, CSGO requires a beefy CPU for high frame rates.

    Reinstall Windows 10, this is a Windows 10 issue.

    Just got my K chip!

    A dumb waste of money when you have a 6400 at 4.7ghz.

    i3 4170 or g4400

    i3 will be better... If you can overclock i suggest going used with X58 or Sandy Bridge.

    future proof card that can max out games at 1080p(budget wise)

    RX 480, the new drivers have given the RX 480 the performance lead vs the 1060 6GB.

    Here is my advice for those on a limited budget! and still want AMD FX killer performance.

    Ask anything you wish if you need help.

    is an AM3+ upgrade worth it?

    No it's just a side grade. I would go for intel, Haswell minimum and an i5.

    Here is my advice for those on a limited budget! and still want AMD FX killer performance.

    Look no further than the first generation X58 HEDT platform, except we are not talking about 45nm chips, nor bloomfield i7's.. 32nm Westmere-EP XEON and very very cheap CPU's! The biggest cost for all of this will be the x58 motherboard and your GPU. Here is what i bought. Here is how...

    CPU voltage too high?

    1.7v is way too high for any CPU over the 65nm process. A normal overclock for a 5820k at 4.5ghz only needs around 1.27v.

    Desktop GPU Performance Hierarchy Table (Archive)

    The GTX 670 is massively faster than the 580, it's in the same league as the 960, the 760 is quite a bit slower than the 670. RX 480 is equal to the 1060. Sort your chart out it's not at all accurate.
