Advice needed. Should I upgrade?

[herzog21]

Should I upgrade my current build? I am considering swapping my AMD 955 BE for a 6th gen i5 or i7 Intel processor.

Not sure yet cos my current processor so far is good and isn't giving me any problem.

My main usage of the computer so far is playing games such as Total Wars and Football Manager, general web surfing and torrenting.

Advice is greatly appreciated.

If ain't broken, don't fix it....

Still good for those games and your usage. Should only consider upgrading when any part spoils or DDR4 RAM price sinks to rock bottom, whichever earlier.

Do you leave your pc on 24/7?
