Hello everyone,
A warm thread from a cold and soggy England. I have recently come into some money and have been looking at building a new machine/upgrading my existing one.
At present I have two options. Upgrade my current rig from
i5-4570 to a i7 4790k (As I am now doing a lot of video editing)
gtx 970 single to 1070SLI (when released)
16gb ddr3 corsair vengeance ram.
850w EVGA psu
or basically go for a new build where the best I can get for the money will be
i5 6600k
and a single gtx 1070. (Maybe a 1080)
8gb ddr4 ram
850W Evga Gold
As I would like to keep the existing rig If I am going to build a new one.
Would you say it's a better investment to just upgrade the gpu and cpu's in my current rig rather than spring for a whole new rig and just sell my existing i5 and 970?
Sorry for poor grammar and sentence structure I am totally exhausted.
Any insight would be much appreciated!
Kind regards
YJ
