Best CPU upgrade for a GA-X58A-UD3R, currently running a i7-930 with 8Gb of 1333, a GTX 750 TI and a 120Gb SSD. Very happy with all my components, but want to upgrade CPU. Looking for best CPU upgrade only. Thanks in advance for any advice. Cheers

I used to have an i7 920 1366skt setup, loved it too, one of intels greatest to be honest, as its getting on a bit, CPU's are very cheap now, how about a nice 6 core 12 thread cpu: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Intel-Core-i7-970-Desktop-CPU-Processor-3-20GHz-6-Core-Socket-1366-i7-970/252795198902?_trksid=p2045573.c100506.m3226&_trkparms=aid%3D555014%26algo%3DPL.DEFAULT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20151005190705%26meid%3Df9d84d5107694d74908376ba79d7a1a9%26pid%3D100506%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26
