Ok Tech heads. My PC is currently 5 years old. It is running an Intel Core I5-2400 Sandy Bridge which sits in a Socket 1155 LGA. I want to upgrade my computer to a better CPU. While I like the architecture of the Intel CPU and I really want to upgrade to an I7 core, the best I can get is a 2xxx without upgrading my motherboard. I want to my current case and hardware. I just want to upgrade my motherboard and CPU.
Currently the motherboard is a uATX Joshua which is standard in the HP case it sits in. I want to buy a uATX motherboard and a Core I7 CPU.
What would you recommend for me to look at? I do game and I want to be able to play newer games but I can't due to hardware setbacks. that and my current computer is starting to show it's age. Thanks in advance for any advice.
