My current specs are:
AMD Phenom 2 x4 955 OC'd at 3.7 GHz
4 GB DDR2 800 RAM
AMD Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition
I'm wanting to get some better performance for gaming specifically, so here are my questions:
1. Is my processor bottlenecking my GPU?
2. Is having the current RAM setup I have hurting me gaming wise?
And, if I do need to upgrade any part of this setup, what would you recommend? I'd prefer to stay AMD if I could, but all the talk about bulldozer and the FX series falling flat worries me.
