I was hoping to just upgrade the processor without upgrading the motherboard and other components so as far as I can see the 5960 is the next processor I can get without changing anything else. This is an octacore processor but you said that's not worth it? At the time when I bought this computer this was all I could afford and the 5930 was one of the better processes I could get. At the moment I am downscaling 4K to 1080p and don't use proxies. I tend to produce two-minute videos at the longest and so I was wondering is it worth upgrading? I am looking at slowly upgrading my PC so here is my current specs and maybe somebody can point out areas in which the upgrades should go in. I am planning on getting a barracuda 12 TB HD and a 1 TB Samsung SSD as a working drive in the near future but I am looking for advice on the GPU, CPU, motherboardand RAM my current pc setup is: Asus X 99 motherboard 5930 hex core extreme CPU 32 GB 2666 MHz RAM Nvidia 980 TI GPU single fan water cooling system can't remember the case but I have got a DVD writer which meant I couldn't have the double fan water cooling system. 2X 500 GB Samsung Evo SSD 1X 4 tb HD I bought this system from dino PC two years ago and this cost me £2300. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks
