Hi all,

I need some advice. With the pieces of hardware currently in my PC, could I get away with upgrading a few for performance or do you think it would be a good idea to build a rig from scratch? I mainly use this PC for gaming. It was built 4 years ago.

Hardware:

Operating System: Windows 8 64-bit
MoBo: Gigabyte EX58-UD4P
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.8GHz
Memory: 6144MB RAM
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series

Mainly because for some reason Windows 8 sucked up my bandwidth, causing lag in my online games
