I'm looking to upgrade my computer, but I don't have the funds to do it all at once. Right now I can afford to upgrade 1 item and what I need the most is either a new/better CPU or a new/better Video Card.
My current Video Card is NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT and I'm looking at getting the GeForce GTX 560 Ti.
My current CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo E8300 and I'm thinking about Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650.
My real question is: Which increase would give me the best "bang for my buck"? My computer is mostly used for gaming, currently Skyrim is running Low-Medium and would like to get into the High-Ultra range.
Thanks for the help!
