Should I get a CPU upgrade?
Hey guys,
I was thinking about getting a new CPU for my machine (link: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/tdlab/saved/YnjRsY)
I dont have a few parts listed on there, but power is not a issue, and neither is memory. (16 gigs over 4 slots of assorted brands)
I have my 2500k overclocked to 4ghz and it works flawlessly. I am able to play Hardline on max settings while still maintaining good (60+ fps) but I choose to put my settings a notch down on high to try to get a bit more frames and it works pretty well. I am looking to futureproof and get a slight performance buff.
So, what do you guys think for a upgrade, CPU or maybe something else?
No, your CPU will be fine for a least another year or 2 with the hardest to run games. I think that you'll be more likely to upgrade the GPU in a year before needing to touch the CPU. If you were rendering films then it would be a different story
Edit- And if you wanna squeeze more out of it then consider an AIO water cooler and do some overclocking, perhaps up to 4.5Ghz
