1 frame ra at most.

heheh negligible diay kaau ang difference dah....ipon mode nlng ko sa i7 setup diay, salamat sir keropi

[lloyd_joy]

^ and on a gaming rig, the difference between an i5 and an i7 is also negligible... hehehe... between the two choices, the i5 is better suited as a gaming CPU kay barato...

in short, ayaw lang usa pag upgrade bro... your CPU paired w/ that GTX 680 of yours is still good as you can get in today's gaming performance...

[keropi]

Ug nangatol ka for an upgrade, I suggest you go for a z77. With that you can have sata3 ready for an ssd upgrade and you can unlock extra 400mhz on your processor. That is IF lang nangatol gyud ka. Not necessary and definitely not a valuable upgrade but could be worthwhile.

if you want a significant boost in games, ilisdi imo vid card.

noted mga sir/bros inyo suggestions..ill be saving the upgrade for an i7 in the near future nlng gyud as for changing my gpu, dili na usa....bago ra nako napalit kaning GTX 680 jetstream, i was just wondering lang na basig bottleneck ko sa cpu...turns out ok pa diay kaau ni in terms of gaming and little bit multitasking, salamat sa inyong mga words of wisdom mga bros

bratu < of ur level > na upgrade is Z77 | B75 + SSD and maybe 16GB < 8GB na ur RAM? >

about VC, here's a nice read :

The Myths Of Graphics Card Performance: Debunked, Part 1

Did you know that Windows 8 can gobble as much as 25% of your graphics memory? That your graphics card slows down as it gets warmer? That you react quicker to PC sounds than images? That overclocking your card may not really work? Prepare to be surprised!

cge bro butitoy, ill look into it knang SSD ug Z77 mobo, although wala pako kasuway ani pa na mga components hehe..about sa RAMs, stick nalang sa cguro ko sa 8gb kay na notice nako I rarely consume over 4gb memory while gaming and multitasking...masayang nya ang 16gb mahal pa raba ang mga mems karon hehehe...salamat sa suggestion bro about pud ani sa vcard myths, daghan ko bago nabal.an hehe maau ni dagdag kaalaman..mas maayo diay mag windows 7 kaysa 8.1 hilabi na more on gaming ko @ 1080p with high-max AA levels og ultra preset napud. good read kaau bro hehe thanks!!

There's a big difference using i5-3570 than i5-2320. You may check this link: ARK | Compare Intel® Products for comparison..in terms of power consumption, speed, memory types, architecture, etc.

I recommend using an H77 Motherboard since naa siyay SATA 3.0 and you're not into overclocking. .i am using h77 mobo, i7 proc, 660ti vcard, and ssd.. .paspas kaayo mo boot akong OS og launch sa games, with regards to performance, ultra settings no laggy If ganahan ka mag overclock, Z77 and "K" procie.

yes sir sa core i5 series maau gyud ang i5 3570 kontra sa 2320 in all aspects hehe pero in terms of gaming ok lang daw tabla sila at most 1fps lang ako ma gain. About sa SATA 3.0 and SSD murag kana nlng gyud unahon sa nako kay dili paspas ang loading/launching sa games haha samot na sa bf4 sometimes 1min pako maghulat para mkasulod sa mp game

update diay ko sa status sa akong concern, dili jud diay bottleneck akong i5 2320 sa GTX 680 jetstream (i think hehe), while playing BF4, @ 1080p/Ultra preset/120 resolution scaling/vsync(off) my GPU usage was constantly 98-99% while CPU usage was dancing at 73-81%....sa 1360x768 (borderless mode)/ultra preset/160 resolution scaling, GPU usage was still 98-99% tapos CPU usage was 53-68% ....all fps was very fluid both 1080p settings and 1360x768 settings (wa nako makuha ang actual fps using MSI afterburner hehe, bsta sure ko dili muubos ug 50 and min. fps)
