Hello guys hope you all can give me your opinion about this.

I have the cpu and mobo and the mem that you see in my rig.
but I can change it to a 4670k and a z87 asus sabertooth and 8gb corsair dominators platinum 2133mhz everything is of course with guarantee and are in top shape (lol)
the 4670k is a es sample and will boot at 1.185v at 4.6ghz
the main thing I do is gaming, using WinRAR and multipar to extract/compress big files and rendering with maxon cinema 4d.

would you change???????????????????????????

I wouldn't

If anything grab a 4930K on the cheap once x99 is released

has nothing to do with upgrading, its just between the 2 setups.

Exactly. You would be making a lateral move essentially and for what reason? :shrug:

Also, its an ES chip which is always the property of Intel... those should not be sold (though they are all the time).

yes but at the moment I,m not looking to get a 6 core I mean, oke dident no that the cpu is protected by intel, its a cpu what was build in a computer from corsair, the built was on a show.

but I think all of you have the same point, don't do it.

The only CPU you should upgrade to is a 4930K. A 4670K, although a few % faster in 4 threaded tasks than the 3820, isn't really an "upgrade" over what you have now. A 4930K would be. You'll see higher FPS from installing a higher end GPU, if you really want more performance.

Agreed with everyone else here that it would be a complete side grade and there's no real point to it. If you want some better encoding you can snag a 6 core cpu, but other than that you won't see any real gains.

I now I see more fps with a higher card, but don't need a higher end card, I,m playing at 1920x1080 so what I have is good at the moment

but point taken, solved.

You can mark threads as solved, FYI... go to thread tools and mark as solved if you are done.
