So about a month ago my house was struck by lightening and ruined my cable modem and motherboard.

I used that event as inspiration to rebuild/upgrade

I kept my current processor, but want to upgrade it SOON

Amd 6100 Zambezi (3.3)
120gb Samsung SSD
12gb of ddr3 pc1600 Gskill Ripjaws
1 tb data drive
750 watt psu
AsRock 990FX Am3+
Gigabyte Windforce Nvidia 660
Asus 23inch 60hz 1080p
Logitec g400 mouse

I know this is know monster build, but with what I spent I am excited !

I also picked up Bf3 with the premium subscription for and all dlc for 29.99 and Farcry 3 for 29.99

What do you want to upgrade your CPU to, and in what applications do you expect to notice a real-world performance boost after the upgrade?
