Ok, I always get my tax money and send it all to the Egg and Amazon as a rule. But I am wondering and contemplating just letting it ride this season. My oldest parts right now are my I5-3570K and my ASArock Z77 OC Formula with 16 gigs of Kingston Hyper-X 1600 blah blah blah,
My initial thought for this year was to go to a new I7 CPU and a new mobo and memory. But the more I think about it the less I feel inclined to do it.
My new way of thinking is just wait till next year this time and do it then with Broadwell or whatever is out then. Mostly thinking this because doing it now will be like fixing something that's not broken. I absolutely love this motherboard. It is hands down for me the best motherboard I have ever had. My CPU has been up to 4.8 and running well on this setup. I however keep it at 4.5 for daily operation and games. It's so easy on this board. No fussing no mussing I just go in and pick a setting and bam it's over.
If anything I was thinking I could just get myself a I7-3770K to play with at Micro Center for 249. here in Boston or a used one on the board here and play around with clocking that. Then get a 2 Terabyte hard drive for my PS4 and pay bills with the rest. Yuck but yah gotta do it
