I know you guys get a lot of questions like this, but I really need some advice. I'm looking to upgrade my 4+ year old PC, which was built back in 2008. I need something good for multitasking, video and photo editing, 3D modeling and gaming. I've managed okay with my current build, but it's beginning to chug along slowly when doing anything heavy, which has been slowing me down a lot.
Specs:
ASUS P5QL Pro
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600@2.4GHz
4GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 9600GT
Running Windows 7 32-bit on a 128GB Samsung 830 SSD and I have two extra internal HDDs. I already have a decent sized case and I am okay with my current hdd storage and 22" monitor.
I only have about $200-$300 to work with at the moment, but I'd be willing to splurge on the most important components first then upgrade a little more down the line if I have to. What would you guys recommend? If my budget is too low, what should I upgrade first?
Thanks.
