Recommendation from a user concerning choice of PC components [1.069] / Feb 2015:
Space Engineers is very CPU heavy. A quadcore with a high frequency is currently performing better than a hexacore with a lower CPU frequency. The performance of the graphics card is not as important as the CPU power.
In the users' case:
| Old system | New system |

The FPS and UPS are slightly better with the old system ! The only "noticeable" advantage of the GTX 980 over the GTX 580 is the render capacity. At 6.5 million triangles the GTX 580 can't update all objects in a frame anymore frequently showing the interior of objects whereas the GTX 980 still manages to display all triangles in a frame.
So if you already have a high-performance quadcore and a good graphics card there won't be much benefit from replacing it with a "better" system.
