I have a laptop that is supposed to be decent but I don't get that great of frame rate when it comes to intense action or lots of particle effects. My current laptop only gets 40-30fps with BF3. Playable but not smooth. I might wait a month to build one if I do.

Dream Build? Looking to keep it under 1,200 usd. Improvements would be much appreciated. I don't know how much is propaganda or real but would a build with a I7 3770k compared to an Amd 8350.

Would I notice an hugely noticeable difference if I did the upgrade? I plan to use the computer for programs like Autodesk Maya and Photoshop as well as games.
