Hey folks,
As far back as my first self-built pentium 166mmx I've always upgraded every couple years. Recently I've been doing this gaming so have had the current rig for 3-4 years. the specs are:
Core i7 920 running @ 3.8ghx
4gb ddr3 ram
ATI Radeon HD5870
Gaming on Dell 30" @ 1600p
These days all I play is Path of Exile and some TF2. i can always game at 60fps in 25600x1600 resolution at high settings but typically have to leave the AA/AF off. It feels to me like technology is FAR ahead of the games out there today and there is no need to upgrade.
In your opinion, how far behind am I? If i were to upgrade what are the current best value overclocking cpu/gpu combos?
