I am currently looking into upgrading my PC. I use it mostly for gaming, streaming and video editing. I realized as of recently that it is not nearly as powerful as I would like it to be. My current interest is in upgrading my CPU.
My current specs are:
AMD FX-6100
ASUS M5A78L-M LX3
GIGABYTE Geforce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB
8GB RAM
650 W Power Supply
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
I am well aware that if I were to go Intel i would have to by a new motherboard as well and in the price differences. Basically I want my system to be able to play most (if not all) games at their highest settings. (I play at 1920x1080) For example, playing a new game such as GTA V at high settings while still maintaining a decent frame rate. I have been looking into either the FX-8350 or going all out with the Intel i7 4790k. That might just be overkill. I am also ware that I must change my graphics card as it is not nearly as powerful as it should be.
If I forgot any information just let me know.
Thanks,
Matthew
