my sig rig is about 4 years old or so and its still going strong, but i would like a new build and as a college student i really i have to be cautious of how i go out and blast my money.
anyways currently i have an amd 965 under water and i figure if i sell it locally with everything except for my HD and graphic card i could get 550ish, but see i dont know if its worth it because that 550 would go to an intel build and of course intel is expensive. I am torn between ivy i5 and sandy i5 or amd 8 core... back to intel how much would an ivy bridge i5 setup cost me vs a sandy? The other thing is that i want to overclock the chip so do i need to pick up a z68 z77 board? i though i heard somewhere that a z68 z77 board is required to overclock intel cpus.
so should i consider it or should i wait till the next tock of intel or should i just stick amd and leave it be for another 2 years?
