hello all.. am thinking of upgrading my gtx 670 to the gtx 780. am playing in 1920x1080 resolution so i have 2 questions.. 1) is it worth it to ugprade? 2) will my current cpu be enough? thank you all in advance ...
If you're feeling the need for more power you'd be better off upgrading the rest of your computer first. You could get a nice Haswell/Z87 setup for the price of a 780 and see a bigger difference. That 670 will be struggling to shine with your current CPU.
your cpu is not currently enough for a 670 in many games, a 780 is only going to be bottlenecked more. new cpu, ram, mb and watch that 670 fly
thank you all for the quick response... Intel Core i5 4670K £184.24 Asus Gryphon Z87 £120.96 Kingston HyperX Genesis DDR3 1600MHz CL9 8GB £57.64 is it a good setup???
You would also need new RAM, you're currently using DDR2. More modern platforms such as the Z87 require DDR3. Still comes out at less than a stand alone 780 mind you. Hah, seems you edited it in while I posted. Looks good to me.
Weak cpu,upgrade to something like i7 4500 and you willl be ok.You have not notice realy difference having gtx 780 in that rig.BUT if you are fan of 3d vision like me or multi monitor then do not think and buy as much horsepower as you can
