I don't know it this I the right place to write this, but here I go
So I have an HP H8 1414 PC. I always wanted to upgrade it but, never had the money to upgrade it. Now I find out by lurking through the forums. I can't upgrade my GPU. I can but I'll be bottlenecking my CPU. so my question is can I use certain parts in the 1414 for my build? Like, the ram, the HD, Optical drive.
Specs
MB: M3970AM-HP (Angelica2)
CPU: AMD FX 6120 3.5 GHz
10GB DDR3 of ram
1TB HD
AMD Radeon HD 7450
My idea was to have the GTX 960 or 980 for the GPU to be ready for the current gen games.
But that's all I have because I don't if I want to go with Intel or AMD.
What I want my build for.
Gaming in high/ultra settings
Video Editing
Minor game Streaming in 720p or 1080p
Future dual monitor setup
Any advice would me appreciated, thanks.
