I currently have:
AMD 955 BE
Asus M4A88T-v Evo
MSI Ref. GTX 580 1.5gb
8gb Kingston hyperX
Corsair CX500
and a bunch of HDD's.
I do some gaming (battlefield, counterstrike, and mostly flight simulator) and a moderate amount of photo editing (photoshop and lightroom). Overclocking is a must for me too.
Thinking I'm keeping the PSU, RAM.. and try to upgrade CPU, mobo and GPU.
I'm torn between the 2 setups below:
i5-4690K
MSI Z97-Gaming 5
GTX 770?
for around $550 from microcenter
--OR--
AMD FX-8350
Gigabyte UD3P
plus GPU.. (the CPU/MOBO will be roughly $100 cheaper than the Intel setup)
