So right now my system is running with a Phenom 965 x4 @ 4ghz (with C3Stepping), and in order for me to get more performance in say Dayz or Battlefield 64p games, i will also need to upgrade my cpu.. but on top of that i am getting into streaming, so i need a CPU that can handle streaming to its most potential..

(the board will stay the same)

Sugestions..

 

i5-3570k with GA-Z77x-ud3h http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128544

 

or

 

i7-3770k with the same board? any other suggestions will be very much appreciated.

 

 

*note my GPU is a Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950 windforce*
