Frame Rate / Hardware Question For PS2

[Kensharma]

So, I am looking to do a PC upgrade to run planetside 2 a bit better then current.

I have an fx-4100, 8gb of ram and a 6870 currently.

Looking to upgrade to an i7 2600, keeping the rest the same.

Will this show great improvements in my fps? Right now in large fights at high I am around 10-20, which is unplayable.

Does anyone else have an i7 2600 + 6870? What frame rate are you getting?

Thanks;
