So I'm upgrading my PC, currently nothing too special, started with a kit build and worked my way up.

So what will benefit me more, I am currently running and AMD a8-3570K processor with a shoddy motherboard along side an AMD HD7750.

I am torn between buying an AMD 7950 or an AMD 8350 (8 core) and new MOBO.

I do a lot of gaming, general web browsing etc. and I was wondering which would benefit this more? I figured the graphics card will boost the gaming but will it be a massive change? Considering the CPU will be heavily bottle necking it. So what do you think will be more beneficial this time around? And why, if you dont mind?

Thanks,

(What I dont buy this upgrade I'll get next month)

hd 7950 with an a8 cpu is just wasting your time, why don't you just save up for a couple of months and build a nice system with an fx 6300 a new motherboard and hd 7870 or if you have the cash then get the fx 8350 new motherboard and the hd 7950
