I currently have a system that I affectionately call Big Blue.
My current specs:
MOBO: Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0
CPU: AMD FX 8350 (OC'd to 5.2GHz)
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Seidon 120V
RAM: 32GB DDR3 1866MHz
GPU 1: Asus R9280X-DC2T-3GD5
GPU 2: Same as first
Sound Card: PowerColor Devil HDX
SSD: Samsung SSD 850 EVO
HDD: 4tb WD Black
ODD: Asus Blu Ray writer/reader
USB Controller: Generic SYBA PCIe x4 USB 3.0 with internal header and two external ports
Front panel card reader: Generic SYBA 6-in-1 USB 3.0 card reader with USB 3.0 port
Chassis: NZXT Phantom 530 Black
Chassis fans: 1x200mm, 1x140mm, 2x120mm as intake; 2x200mm, CPU radiator can as exhaust
PSU: Cooler Master V1000
The USB ports on the chassis are connected to the USB 3.0 header on the MOBO, the card reader gets its connection from the header on the expansion card.
My question is, if I want to edit videos at 1440p, game at 1080p, and just do everyday things that put a heavy load on the CPU, what would be a good upgrade path for me?
I was thinking about going Intel this time. And I intend to keep and reuse my chassis.
