hello guys,
I have a gaming rig that I have owned for around 1 year and I am still chuffed with it, but I am just bored and want to upgrade something?! I dont want to spend much around the £100 mark, just little upgrades, and I just want advice on what would be the best to get, my specs are listed below:

Amd FX-8320 @ 4ghz

Asus M5a78l Usb3 (I know people will disapprove of this matx board, but I think its perfectly fine and runs all my hardware fine.

Gigabyte HD 7950 Overclocked

Western digital 7200rpm 500gb(500gb is enough for me)

8gb ddr3 1600 kingston ram

corsair cx600m psu

I was thinking maybe a water cooler for my cpu to get a higher more stable clock with more stable temps or I could sell my hd 7950 and get the r9 280x or 7970 (as i cannot crossfire on a matx board), or my last option was to go ssd.
Let me know what you thhink
Thanks :)

Solution
When you have the itch, it is time to scratch it.

My suggestion is to spend your £100 on a SSD for the "C" drive.
It is one of the most satisfying performance upgrades you can make.
