Hey guys, I posted on here bout month or so ago about upgrading my PC, unfortunately I couldn't due to money troubles but have a bit left over. I really want to upgrade my whole system but what I'm finding difficult is what order to buy these in... for example here's my build
MB: Corsair IV Formula
CPU: Phenom II 1090t
MEM: 8GB Komputerbay DDR3 1333 <- Have a suspicion these are buggy and get weird timings
GPU: XFX r9 290 Black Edition
HD1: Samsung 840 EVO 250gb (OS, Games, VM's)
HD2: 500gb Western Digital caviar blue
HD?: few other projects drives etc
What I'm thinking is before Christmas I have around £200 to spare, then more after Christmas...
What Id really like to do is buy a FX 8350, and a new ROG Corsair V Formula-Z, but there like £160 each at the moment (hoping they come down in January sales), so I thought id get new memory and SSD?
I'm thinking Corsair Vengeance 8gb 1866mhz (~£70) and new Samsung 800 series for OS and use my current 840 for games VM's maybe?
What yous think? or rather what what would yous do? I like to know what people think in the community before i make my mind up about purchases as yous know more about what's going on than I do
thanks
