Is there anything different I could change out for better performance.

Thanks DieHard
 
Are you having any performance issues as is?

Are you overclocking?

What speed is the RAM? What speed do you have it running at?

Cheapest increase in performance would be a higher end processor and overclocking. an 8320e (about $120 on eBay) and overclock it to 4.6-4.8Ghz.

And overclock your RAM /get higher speed RAM.

There are some other things you can do with AMD systems to help increase performance as well.
 
Just 5% over clock on CPU to 4100

The ram is 1600 DDR3

I was just wondering if any thing could be change out to give a little better performance
 
What exactly are you doing with this rig? I mean, without knowing what you're doing it's hard to figure out where you might have a bottleneck.
 
Monitor resolution is 1080P I take it?

That's a pretty stout rig as is, but if you were to upgrade to a newer Intel quad core you'll see improvements in your minimum FPS. Doubt you'll see a noticeable difference since you're most likely gaming on a 60Hz monitor at 1080P.

What games are you playing anyway?
