Hey all,
I recently got a gtx 1060 and it bottlenecks the crap out of my cpu. My i5-4440 runs at max while gpu is at around %65-70. I want a new CPU and also go from 8gb of ram to 16, but theres a few ways to go.
I have an asus H81M-E mobo, this PC was a prebuilt from ASUS so if I change mobo I need to buy windows again.
I can do a couple of things here, drop in a 4690 and a 16gb kit which would be cheapest. Or I could get a new 7500 and buy a mobo for it, ram, and windows, which would be much more.
Im a little tight on the budget but if you guys think the 7500 is worth it I could save a little longer, is the 7500 much better than 4690?
Thank you!
