Guys quick question I have the i7-2600k OC at 4.3Ghz should I upgrade to the I7-3600k, I lag on 4k games so instead of buying another 2000$+ pc gaming build, will just upgrade my CPU and my GTX 1080 do? my motherboard is an Asus ROG Maximus IV Extreme, my RAM is DDR 3 Patriot 32 Gig, Thanks a lot for all advice
