Gaming rig upgrade

[btr999]

Hi guys, need to upgrade my a year old gaming rig for the upcoming BF4. My specs as below:

i5 2400 3.10hz 6mb sandy bridge
biostar TP67 B+
4gbx2 ddr3
MSI GTX 560 TI Twinforzr II
Hitachi 1TB Sata HD
FSP 500W Aurum Gold


Budget: $400-$600
Which part should I change first to get a better performance? This rig occasionally prompt computer performance is slow when playing BF3 at low setting.

Seems like to me you just need to upgrade your graphic card and MAYBE your PSU. I don't think you need a major upgrade at all. Just wait for the next gen GTX 770 or something in the coming months.

Update your graphics card driver. Your setup will run BF3 on high settings.

Why not wait for AMD 8000 series to be out? If I'm not wrong, they might bundle BF4 together with their 8000 series gpu.

No idea how much it will cost. But I suggest you play the waiting game first see what the 7series going to offer. There are some rumors on the pricing but nothing set in stone yet. A 670 isn't a bad choice now, but if you can wait (since BF4 not even out yet), just wait lor.
