Hey,
I am looking to upgrade my current desktop. The use i need it for is mainly SC2, a couple VMs, GNS and the occasional movies, streaming etc
My current setup is 4-5 years old. Specifically :
AMD Athlon II x4 635
3GB DDR2
nVidia GT220 1GB
I am planning on upgrading everything in a few months period but i want to do it gradually since all at once is kinda hard with vacation expenses and whatnot.
My final build will be an AMD FX-8320 (probably OCed), HD 7770, 8GB RAM 1600MHz and an SSD.
I purchased a new 23" IPS monitor last week and i am using 1080p even in SC2, on low settings ofc, so my PC is struggling alot.
My choices are either new CPU/Mobo/RAM or GPU first.
Which of the two would yield the best value? Keep in mind i will upgrade both with like 2 months difference.
Thanks in advance!
