I decided I wanted to build off what I had and do some upgrades, I just wanted to see what you thought of this stuff I picked out. If you have any suggestions to cut down the price. Please feel free to give some constructive chritisizm!
MOBO: GIGABYTE GA-EP45
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
GFX: ASUS EAH4870 MATRIX
MEM: OCZ Platinum Edition 8GB (4 x 2GB)
CPU FAN: ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro
HD: Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EADS 1TB
I already have a new fatal1ty sound card, all the peripherals, and a raptor for my main drive. I just need upgrades for most of the guts of my machine. I wasnt sure if I should get that 8 gigs of memory because its on sale for 100 bucks on new egg, or if I should get 4 gigs of more expensive stuff. I wasnt sure if that was a good choice for GFX card, I just know I have an asus now and I trust the brand. The fan I just threw in, I want to do some overclocked and wasnt sure if the stock fan was alrite.
I wanna try spending under 700 but I am currently at 770+shipping, so If I could get some help cutting prices, much appreciated!
