I did the same thing years ago with my current build. I designed the whole thing for overclocking but when I got it all together I didn't really see any need because it ran almost everything perfectly. core 2 duo's sure were awesome for their time.
Well after this thread I was definitely wanting the 4670K but I have a bit less money than I thought I did for this upgrade. To be honest, I like all three. 2500k, 3570k, 4670k.
I am ordering in probably about a week and will probably just get the one that I can make fit my budget or what is...
cool. Well it's settled then i am getting that combo.
I have a gtx 760. 1080P
games like, ARMA 3, ARMA 2, Rome 2, Civ 5 HoI series. Strategy games. etc.
The reason I am so focused on overclocking is because most of the games I play are CPU limited and I want to get the best performance possible which is why I posted this thread.
I know the 4670K is better clock for clock and has more IPC and more features.
It's ok though, I agree with...
4670K it is then.
Just 2 more questions though.

Sorry for the noob question.
Ok thanks for the replies. There is one more thing for me to consider though.
I am on somewhat of a limited budget for this upgrade and this will actually be my first overclock ever.
I read that the 2500K is easy to overclock and the 4670K is very hard to overclock.
I also read that the...
I know most people will say the 4670K is better but what about for games that are CPU limited?
It kind of seems like in these games the higher clocked 2500K would be better? Or is this wrong?
I'm thinking I will get about 4.8 GHZ out of the 2500K and 4.2 GHZ out of the 4670K.
I can only...
Where to buy i5 2500K new that ships for a good price?
I have been searching but cant really find anything.
Please respond if you know where to get these CPU's.
Thanks.
I am ordering a new video card for an older gaming computer. I have decided to put a cheap 9600 GSO or 9600GT (haven't decided yet) in the computer for now and then in about a year put a GTX 280 or something more powerful in it.
The computer needs a new power supply no matter what. The one...
Hi, thanks for the reply. Just curious, what does Asus or Nvidia list the system requirements for this card?
I cant seem to find it on there website.
The rest of the system is lower end and only hd and dvd, not very much at all.
But I am wondering, what does Asus or Nvidia say about...
