My build was in 2010 with a Asus H55 motherboard, Intel core i3-530 cpu at 2.93 gh, 8G ram, 450W PSU, 256 gb SSD, windows 8-64 bit os., no graphic card.
I do not play any pc games, I use my computer mainly for emails, watching hd videos, youtube, browsing the web, my photo library (no editing), work on Office, pdf and auto CAD (2D only) files. Since the build was made almost 3 years ago and I feel I might need an upgrade. Please kindly advise if I should:
1. get a good graphic card if such can improve the video quality, or improve the overall speed of the system.
2 wait until intel's haswell cpu is out and get one (like core i5) and a new mb, it was said that the new cpu will have much better video capabilities.
3. no need to upgrade at all because no noticeable improvement will be seen based on the above usage
4. any other suggestion?
My budget is about US400
Thanks a lot for your advise.
