Debating on whether to change from an overclocked phenom ll 550 @ 3.8ghz to a quadcore phenom ll x4 955, 3.2Ghz, which I will also overclock.
47fps in silverstone benchmark on ultra @ 1920 x1080. 48fps on high. Was 41/42 fps at stock 3.1Ghz. This is with a new sapphire 5850 extreme GFX. Some people tell me quad won't make much if any difference, depending on the game. Am I likely to see an fps increase in F1 if I buy a 955? Can't unlock mine unfortunately. I want to be getting into the late 50's if not 60's fps at high settings and high res. Is this achievable?
