Hi there, so I've been out of PC Hardware for about 5 years now, and even back then it was done through Dell as it didn't make much difference cost wise, but today I've been offered a GTX 970 (what I'm dribbling about a bit)
Right now I have a Dell XPS 8300 from 5 years ago. It has a Intel i5-2500 CPU 3.3GHZ, 8GB of ram, and has a GTX 560ti gfx card.
I'm presuming the majority of it will be brilliant to run top spec games at 1080p but what spec would i need for 4K? Gaming would be a bonus if possible atall, but for media, is it possible to have it split I'm such a way where you get 4k media only.
I've been told I may need a new motherboard (just somebody mentioning it off in comment). But what else would i need? More ram? 2x gfx cards?
Many thanks for any help or advice! I sure would love to get back into PC gaming!
