Hi Guys,
Given that my setup is around 2+ years old already, I am again at the stage of "upgrading". By upgrading, I just mean getting newer components while still retaining my board. Below is my current setup:
AMD A4-5300
Deepcool Gammaxx 200
Gigabyte GA-F2A68HM-S1
Sapphire R7 250X 1GB DDR5
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 1866MHz
Seagate 250GB + 500GB HDD
FSP Hexa+ 550
Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
Cooler Master K280
Looking at the above, it is obvious that the CPU is the oldest part, and I am considering an upgrade within the limits/capacity of my board. So I am thinking of two options:
1. Upgrading to a newer CPU (A8/A10); or
2. Buying an SSD; or
3. Athlon X4 plus a new GPU
I am just looking for a new refresh to my system, and maybe a little increase in speed. After all, I just play LOL, and mostly download & consume media. I am also looking for the most practical/cost efficient suggestion.
Any thoughts? Or should I just sit tight and not look for ways to waste money?
Thanks!
