Hello knowledgeable folks, hoping you can help with my upgrade. I've been looking at AMD Ax motherboard bundles for around £200, but not sure if that is the way to go.
Approximate Purchase Date: Early June
Budget Range: £350 GBP Sterling, after shipping and rebates
System Usage : Gaming, web surfing
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: mobo, CPU, GPU (will consider integrated, save GPU upgrade for later), RAM, SSD (for OS and select games), possibly PSU
Re-using case, 640GB HDD (not half-full after 3 years) and 300W PSU if possible (All three as came in Compaq Presario CQ5034UK )
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: None, but as few as possible to minimise delivery charges.
Location: Guildford, Surrey, UK
Parts Preferences: None
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1280x1024 currently, no target
Additional Comments: Not fussed about high end graphics, just want low-mid for modern games, inc. (and I know this is a big ask!) Planetside 2.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Current PC is suing for constructive dismissal after I asked it to play some modern games.
