You would think Ubisoft would support the Bulldozer based architectures more given their digging themed names like bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller and Excavator.

If you don't NEED to upgrade, just get a new fan for your heatsink and save up for a graphics card upgrade

“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

I would add an SSD if you need the space.. But also get rid of anything you don't use or need anymore... you can just re-download again if it ever comes up, like an old game or something you have uploaded somewhere or put on youtube or media that you can easily get again and aren't going to watch again or not for a very long time.

I don'T PreSS caPs.. I juST Hit THe keYboARd so HarD iT CriTs :P

 

Quote or @dzzope to get my attention..
