I'm considering upgrading the GPU of my system (specs below) to a GeForce GTX 780 (getting rid of the current 560s SLI), but I've heard that my older Intel i7 may hamper the performance of the 780, that I might actually get better overall performance from a GeForce GTX 770 with my current rig. Is this true? Any thoughts? Thanks! Walt
