Hi guys! I'm a musician building a desktop for the purpose of recording, producing and mixing material; my priority is CPU & storage, though I got storage covered in terms of what I'm getting.
I currently have a $180 Best Buy gift card, and a $100 Amazon gift card.
Given that information, maybe you guys have an idea of how I can make optimum use of my cards?
I currently have:
A well-sized tower. In no need of buying one, honestly!
PSU: 485W, Enermax Noisetaker
GPU: XFX GeForce GTX 285 (MINT cond., never been used -- considering selling it if I can't put it to use)
RAM(DDR2): 2x2GB kingston 2gb 2rx8 pc2-6400u;; 2x2GB Super Talent DDR2-800
Would it be unreasonable to be going after this old piece, and out of my way for an LGA-775 to use it?
If not, is there an LGA-775 mobo that you highly recommend?
Otherwise... what are your thoughts, considering what I currently have, and what would be compatible with them?
Any of these that I should junk? Why?
And if you had my gift cards, how would you leverage them to build your own budget PC under my circumstances?
I appreciate you guys, as well as your time and your thoughts! Thank you very much, all my love
