My current spec:
E6400 oced to 3.2
Asus P5N-E SLI
2x2 gb OCZ pc 6400 4-4-4-12 1T
geforce 260 216
As idiotic as this sounds, I want to upgrade to a quad core to play GTA4. It runs a bit choppy on mine right now.. I think i am getting 25-30fps. I am aware that my motherboard isn't compatible with the newer quad cores. I would also like to keep my ram and video card because I just purchased them. What is my best option to gain more FPS in GTA4?
These are my options
1. upgrade to a E8400 and overclock to 4.0
2. get a new motherboard and CPU (775 not i7 or i5)
(but since I am low on cash, I don't want to buy new rams)
3. buy a q6600 and oc it to 3.0
Thanks in advanced
