CPU intel i5 4570
GPU GTX 650 Ti Boost
RAM 1333Mhz 2x2gb (8-8-8-20)
Current max resolution 1366x768

With my current rig im sure i can run this new games, but i want to know how well it will run it?
- FPS in BF4, crysis3, planetside2,Metro
Any Bottleneck?
-FPS in 1080p (future upgrade)
Any bottleneck?

Currently playing BF3, COD's, all max'd out.. 60-70Fps.
I don't usually play MULTI.

Is there any significant improvement if ill upgrade to i5 4670k?
(I have z87 board)
 
Solution
Yep, get a 2x4GB DDR3-1600 kit. Currently a single 650 Ti Boost will be playing ultra at 1366x768 without any problems, it's good enough to play at high settings at 1080p as well. Go for the 1080p screen then the boost next year :D

I have 7850 but returned and exchange it for gtx 650 ti boost..

7850 gives screen flickering in most of my games. Most noticeable in dark scenes. It's just Annoying not very visible in most part but I doubt it's not in solid state. I tried a different card same model but same problem. So I switch to Nvidia :) and it exceed my expectation being cheaper compared to its Rival

I'm not so sure bout the after Value here but I heard its cheap..

But isn't the SLI 650 ti boost an overkill for 1366x768 rez? I'm getting my 1080p maybe a year from now.

If it's overkill then I'll just get 1080p first then next year another boost?

Sadly I can't get both them at the same time. Budget restriction :)
