Yeah, if he was getting decent performance even with his cpu then I can't see your cpu bottlenecking the gtx 750ti all that much, at least at 1024x768p. However I'd upgrade your cpu ASAP if you can, because it is a bit old plainly speaking.

With an i5 processor and a gtx 960M you could probably play even the newest releases at 1080p 60fps like the Witcher 3 if you're willing to play on low to medium settings (just make sure you turn off all Nvidia Gameworks features, like Hairworks). Here's a review with gaming benchmarks for...

Well, if it comes down to a nuclear option, you can always just reinstall windows.

My build is almost the exact same as RababNoor's the only differences are that it has 4gb less of RAM, which would have a bit of an effect on performance, but you can always buy another 4gb of RAM for like £16 whenever you want. You don't need to buy it right away if you don't want to. The other...

Just so you know the build you want to make is still a valid option, but you would basically have to upgrade your graphics card right away. Like you won't be doing pretty much any gaming until you swap that thing out for something better. Then you'd have a great cpu and gpu. But if you won't...

And these are the differences between the i5 4590 and the fx 6300. It'll have an impact on your gaming experience, but not nearly as big of one as the difference in gpu power: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i5-4590-vs-AMD-FX-6300

Just so you know the difference in performance between the r9 280x and the gtx 750ti, here are a bunch of comparisons between the two. If you can see the benchmarks, I think the difference is pretty clear: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1041?vs=1130

I'd upgrade the CPU, mobo, and GPU first. Everything else would work fine, but those parts are a little old. Not that they're bad, but if you're going to upgrade anything on top of what you already plan to do, I'd sell the mobo, CPU and GPU, then use that money and whatever else you need to to...
