Hello, the question is when prices fall and can get better products (not latest release) for less money.
I guess when manufacturers release a new generation of hardware, lower prices of old products without being obsolete yet. Is it right?.
I want to know because I want to upgrade my system, at first I was going to buy a GTX630, but I think it is not worth it and it is best to update my computer (motherboard, cpu, memory, case, graphic card). With a budget of € 500 - $ 679, and I want to know which is the best time to do it.
My current system:
Motherboard:
CPU Type DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2600 MHz (13 x 200) 5200+
Motherboard Name Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 (2 PCI, 3 PCI-E x1, 2 PCI-E x16, 4 DDR2 DIMM, Audio, Gigabit LAN, IEEE-1394)
Motherboard Chipset nVIDIA nForce 570 SLI, AMD Hammer
System Memory 3072 MB (DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM)
DIMM1: Kingston 2 GB DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM (6-6-6-18 @ 400 MHz) (5-5-5-15 @ 333 MHz) (4-4-4-12 @ 266 MHz)
DIMM3: MDT MDT 1GB DDR2-80 1 GB DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM (6-5-5-18 @ 400 MHz) (5-5-5-18 @ 400 MHz) (4-4-4-12 @ 266 MHz)
3D Accelerator nVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT
Monitor Acer AL1917 [19" LCD] (ETL5309120)
Power 450W
Best a upgrade, not?
Regards & thanks.
