I had heard the 2500K overclocks better then the 3570K but it is priced very close so i could go that route.

Hey folks i was looking for some input on an upgrade to my computer. I’m looking at being any to handle WvW decently hopefully 30ish FPS on bigger battles. Currently i have an old AMD duel core which can not handle WvW at all really. Below is a link to what i’m looking at getting to upgrade my current rig. I’m keeping my SATA drives and video card which is a Radeon 5750. I’m looking for suggestions and opinions on this build and how it may handle WvW. I plan on OCing the 2500k to around 4ghz with air cooling to start, the water to go higher later maybe. I’m wondering how badly my current video card is going to hold the system back? What the thoughts are on the Motherboard are for ocing I’m trying to keep the price down as much as i can thus i haven’t added a new video card, however i’m concerned it might end up hurting performance alot. Thanks for the input.
