Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this week (the closer the better)
Budget Range: Approx $500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Mostly for gaming and everyday usage
Parts to Upgrade: CPU/MOBO maybe an SSD
Location: City, State/Region, Country - New Jersey, USA
Why Are You Upgrading: I originally built my computer with 2 hand me down parts( CPU / MOBO ). However, they have died after approximately 3 days of use. I will be purchasing a new Cpu and Mobo. I am also debating getting an SSD. After doing some research this is what i have come up with. However... my friend's advice is conflicted and i need more opinions. Someone told me that Asus build quality has fallen in the last few years and that i should get a gigabyte MOBO. Also im getting alot of crap about the SSD and theyre saying that i should just get the samsung 840pro but idk if the price difference is worth it?
Anyways thanks in Advance
