I'm interested in increasing my gaming performance.
Currently my setup is:
AMD Phenom II 555 X2 3.2GHz unlocked to X4 and at 3.7GHz
16GB GSkill Ripjaw DDR3 1333MHz
60GB OCZ Vertex SSD
2 Powercolor AMD 5770 (512MB) in Crossfire
Dynapower 750W 80 PLUS Bronze certified PS (Crossfire and SLI certified)
My thoughts are to either buy a new motherboard and processor and get a somewhat slight gaming performance increase (or major in some CPU intensive titles) OR to get a new video card.
I'm leaning towards either the new Intel i2500 processor and ASUS P67 Motherboard or the AMD 6970.
Which would you choose and why?
I do not have a preference as to Nvidia or AMD/Intel AMD. Usually I just want to go with whichever will be money best spent.
