Hello,
On April 27th my house was destroyed by a tornado. Along with it went my home built AMD computer. I am now looking to rebuild a new system. the following is my old build:
AMD FX-4170
ASUS M5A97 Corsair Vengeance 16GB
Intel SSD (OS)
WD Caviar(Junk and Stuff)
EVGA 550ti
Windows 7 Professional
Can't remember power supply
I am looking for advice on a new build, AMD or Intel, doesn't matter, just want something for all around use including light gaming, internet, movie watching, word processing, music editing, etc. I want something that wont cost more than my house, will hold up as far as not going totally obsolete in 6 months, run on Windows 7 pro again ( never used 8 and don't know to what advantage to upgrade).
Any advice as far as a comparable system that's somewhat in date and would run as good or better than what I had? Thanx in advance for any opinions and advice. Tim
