You're considering upgrading from your i5 3340 to an i7 3770. Since you're buying used, you'll likely save money. Your current CPU score is 646 on Cinebench R23 single-threaded, and the i7 3770 should offer a significant performance boost. Planning to add a 1060 3GB RAM upgrade this week—great strategy! Let me know if you need more details. Thanks!

What is the cost for this CPU? This is an artificial benchmark, as such, it doesnt really reflect reality. What do you do with your current system?

The i7 3770 is about 10% quicker than the i5 3340, with a marginally better single-core rating. It can boost performance slightly, though the system may face limitations as time goes on. You might see a few frames per second gains in games. At this stage, the GPU will outperform the CPU more noticeably.

You're looking to trade in your CPU for something more powerful but still budget-friendly. If it's not a huge jump, consider a 1060 with 3GB RAM for around 225 USD. It's a solid upgrade for gaming on a 60-inch monitor. Just make sure it fits your needs! Thanks for the tip.

It seems you're considering a purchase decision. If it's a minor improvement, you might skip it. You're thinking about getting 1060 3GB for around 225 USD, especially since you'll be using a 60Hz monitor. It's about time to upgrade! Thanks for your input.

The 1660 delivers a significant performance jump in games. Despite CPU constraints, it outperforms the GT 630 markedly—around a 1500% boost per userbenchmark. At $225, it offers excellent value according to UserBenchmark: Nvidia GeForce GT 630 vs GTX 1660.
