Hi!
Looking for help in what should I upgrade in my system, as it's starting to run too slow for editing, which doesn't really help in holding deadlines etc. The max I want to spend on the upgrade is around 400-450 USD (could spend a little bit more if it was really worth it).
The main usage of the system is heavy use of after effects/premier pro, and gaming sometimes (but there is no performance problem on that side).
My current setup is:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-p67X-UD3-B3
CPU: Intel i7 2600k @ stock, with stock cooler (was thinking about just upgrading the cooler and ocing but don't want stability problems)
RAM: Kingston HyperX KHX1600C10D3/8GX (16 gb kit)
VGA: Asus GeForce GTX660 DirectCU II OC 2GB (running 3 monitors + a hdtv which is rarely used)
Drives:
SSDs: Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120 gb for system, Samsung 830 60 gb for afx/premier cache files
HDDs: 2x 1 TB 1x 600 GB
PSU: Corsair CMPSU-600CXV2EU
