I require upgrade for muh gaymen.
current specs:
i7 920 @4 giggyhurtz
6950 2gb
16gb ram

Can i just hot swap GPU for something newer and leave the 920 as is or do i just go for all new build?

I only wish to game at 1080p.

What price

>>55033903
Up to or around 350 aud... should i wait for rx 480 or will cpu be bottleneck anyhow?
>>
>>55033975
CPU may be a bottleneck, but it's still the equivalent of a budget AMD processor.
You could start looking for an i5 2500k or i7 2600k package on whatever passes for your Craigslist.

>>55033975
Wait for RX 480, get an 8gb version and you're good to go. I don't think CPU would be a problem

nah you don't, not if your goal is 1080p.

You're more autistic because you play video games.

If you can OC a bit higher the CPU may be on for a little while longer. Start with a new GPU first, id wait for the RX 480 of you intend to stay at 1080p.

If the cpu is holding you back after the above, then look into upgrading the rest.
