Hey guys, Im looking at an upgrade and im wondering if i should just stay with what i have.
Specs:
Core 2 Quad Q8300
8GB DDR2
ASUS P5Q-VM OEM Motherboard
Corsair TX750V2 PSU
Corsair 600T White Case
750GB Seagate/500GB Seagate @ 7200RPM
Im looking to Run Battlefield 3, and some newer games. Im also wondering how much of a FPS difference in games it will be if i get a new Motherboard since my OEM board doesn't support Overclocking. I probably will buy a nice Socket 775 Board to bring my 2.5GHz to in the 3GHz Range. Also, Ive heard that there is no need to get DDR3 Ram with Core 2 Quads, Because of a 1333 FSB.. But can't you just up the FSB? Thanks.. Im New to OCING But ive got everything down and how to do it.
