Thinking of upgrading.
Here is my scenario, I'm thinking of upgrading, but not sure if its worth it.
I've had a AMD Phenom 9950 BE installed on a AM3/DDR2 board. Other than it jumping 20+ degrees when gaming system taxing games (idles at ~38°C and gets up to ~62°C with stock HSF), its been fine and really don't have a reason to upgrade. Except that I have about a $200 PP balance thats been telling me to shop around.
Should I go for:
Phenom II 1055 which I wouldn't mind getting just for the shits and giggles of having it.
Phenom II 965 because it would be a better gaming processor or even something lower.
Neither, wait for my system to melt down.
