Additional Comments: I built a pc about 6-7 years back with a core 2 duo e6600 OCed @ 3.0ghz, nvidia 8800gts, 4x1gb memory, so obviously that is very outdated. Time to build a new one! I have not been nearly invovled in the online world as I used to be, nor have I kept up to date with new parts or technologies. So thats what Im coming here!
Ive been looking at newegg some and it just makes me realized how out of the loop I am. It seems 4 cores is the standard nowadays, whereas 7 years back getting my e6600 at the time was somewhat future-proofing myself. And then I see some 8 core AMD processor, but I have no idea how that compares. I also remember when I was building my old rig, 4 gb of memory was honestly a little overkill for most peoples uses, but now it seems standard with lots of new PCs advertising 6 or 8gbs. And then looking at the list of mobos I have no idea where to even begin comparing those. So again I just havent kept up with technology over the last couple of years, so if yall could help me select a list of parts to order that would be great.
Thanks guys!
