I am considering upgrading my pc for battlefield 3. My current specs are in my sig, I need to get a motherboard, cpu, and ram. I want to get an EVGA motherboard, is it really wroth the extra $60 for 2 pci-e X16 slots instead of x16 and an x8? I honestly doubt I will ever run SLI... My real question is, should I get an i5 cpu or i7? Better yet, socket 115 motherboard or 1366? Is it true that the i9 cpus will be 1366? What is your input? I will be keeping my GTX470 with this build, hoping to spend around $500-ish. I get 35ish fps now on battlefield 3 beta, would an upgrade (mobo ram cpu) improve that? Thanks guys!
** Just did some googling, am I better off waiting for this new LGA2011? I have a felling the lga2011 CPUs and mobos will be very expensive :/
