I'm looking to buy either the gtx960 4gb, or a new processor, or a 27" full hd monitor, but I don't kniw which to buy because of my specs, could someone help me choose what to get?

 

My specs are:

8gb Ram

Core i7-2600 (3.3 gHz)

Asus gtx 550ti 1gb

 

I could run everything fine on ultra high, but when I go to a payware airport like san francisco, I get around 10-15 fps, but when I'm on the default airports running on payware aircrafts with the followind add-ons, it runs okay.

 

Add-ons:

Orbx global

Orbx vector

Orbx trees

Rex essentials plus overdrive

 

 

I want to know which of my components is affecting that so I may make a change, and which components you could recommend me.

 

By the way my cpu is a NON-K, so I can't over clock it.

 

Thanks guys!

CPU 4770K 4.3Gig turbo that will make the biggest dif, than video card next. Monitor upgrade waste of time till CPU and video sorted.

Q1) What model of M/B do you have?

Q2) What CPU cooler do you have?

 

Probably the CPU upgrade will make the most difference and you really want to be overclocking the CPU for a justifiable performance gain; that might mean a new CPU cooler. It appears that the fastest LGA1155 CPU upgrade for you is: Sandy Bridge i7-2600 to Ivy bridge i7-3770K (which is about the same cost as an i7-4790K).

But Haswell is LGA1150 so he'd need a new M/B.
