Long time reader but new to the forums... just looking for a bit of advice.
Like most I'm a huge Half Life fan and have just purchased HL Alyx after hearing good things (I know its been out ages - but I'm a Dad and get very little free time)
My PC back in the day was OK... but its struggling with Alyx....
Spec.
Asus Z87 board
i5 - 4670K running at 4Ghz
32GB RAM DDR3 Dual Channel (4 x 8GB matched - cant remember brand but half decent in the day)
1080 GTX GFX Card
All SSD storage
Just wondering if it was worth buying the i7 4790K to see if helps or am I at the point I need to change everything?
I thought the 1080 although old would still be ok-ish?
