Hi there guys, my brothers asked me to sort out getting his new pc and its been a couple of years since I've built mine and I'm quite busy with uni exams just now so I wanted to check this is a decent build as I sort of just threw it together and don't have enough time to properly check it all out.
So I recently upgraded my graphics card, the old ones (a HD 5770) fine so I said he could have that to cut down the price but it does get quite hot 90s (even 100 once) so I said first I'd try cleaning it out with compressed air (its enclosed so a brush etc. is not possible) and see if it came down if not I said it's probably best if he got a new one instead.
Basically is this build good with either GPU and if my old HD 5770 is not used is the i5 3350 and GTX 650 Ti a good match? Or should I downgrade the CPU to improve the GPU etc?
