Hi there,

I have a Dell studio xps 8100. I have recently changed the psu to a corsair 600 watt and the gpu to a GeForce 660 ti.

My specs are:
Intel i7 860 2.8ghz
6gb ram
600w corsair psu
GeForce 660 ti
Windows 7 x64

I'm trying to slowly upgrade my machine to be a mid to high range gaming pc. I'm looking for a motherboard + processor bundle with a budget of £400. I'd like the processor to be considerably more powerful than the one I have to increase performance. I am struggling to find one and am a little bit overwhelmed by some of it.

Could anyone suggest of one perhaps?

Thanks
