Hey guys,
Now a thread for myself. I have finally decided on what I want to do. I am going to be doing some upgrading to my current rig. Here are my current rig specs:
Antec p182
x3 720be 2.8ghz
4870 1 gb
gigabyte ga-ma790gp-ud4h
4 gb g.skill pi black 800
corsair 750tx
wd 640gb hdd
lg 22x drive
I think that is everything besides the sound card but that isnt that big of a deal to me.
So for the upgrades I am thinking of this:
case: Antec 1200
2nd gpu for CF: 4870 1GB
cpu: phenom II x4 955
cpu cooler: ZEROtherm BTF90 92mm Silent UFO
thats $635 w/ shipping
also i am selling my current case and hsf and cpu for $225 total so that takes little bit of a load off the price
i do have a few questions though:
Should I do a motherboard upgrade so i can utilize ddr3 ram?
And if so what do you recommend? Mainly though is it worth upgrading the mobo and ram?
Last question: Is it worth upgrading for the price or should I sell my current rig and build starting new?
