Hello,
I am upgrading my pc and replacing these current parts
9800 gtx+ to a 7870 gz edition
replacing my old asus motherboard to an Asus M5A97 so I can finally support DDR3 memory which will be the Corsair Vengence 1866MHz 8gb
My current processor is an AMD Phenom II x4 970 running at 3.51GHz
The question I have is should I consider upgrading my processor to something more current from AMD, or is it a waste to upgrade so quickly? I mainly use my pc for gaming, and want my machine to be able to play current games at decent settings without many hiccups. Suggestions will be greatly appreciated on what I should do.
Thank you!
