    Intel CPU doesn't work on AMD motherboards You have to buy motherboard that supports LGA 1155 socket

    AMD Mobile processor? N930?

    i7 740QM is based on superior architecture. It can perform more instructions per clock. Not to mention that it supports hyper-threading and Turbo boost

    Getting new stuff and selling the old ones

    You current CPU is still very good. Sure i5 750 is faster than Q9550, but I don't think you will notice any big difference between the too. At least get i7 2600 or i5 2500 if you want to upgrade 4GB ram is more than enough for gaming The only weak part you have is your current video card. GTX...

    Dead Space 2 is very good game I did not play crysis 2 yet, but I don't think single player campaign is going to be better than dead space 2

    Will this gaming PC build work?

    I would suggest i5 2500 instead of 1100T HD5750 is not really powerful video card, I suggest that you upgrade to something like HD6850 or HD6870 16GB is overkill for gaming. Even 4GB more than enough for gaming. I would not waste too much money on RAM

    2500K or 955?

    So, what is the point of buying a new motherboard if you are not going to change your processor ? Instead of buying the motherboard without a new processor, you can simply save the money in your pocket, and then when you can afford a new CPU you could buy the new CPU and the motherboard at same...
