This is my set-up right now. I am looking to make an upgrade but I am not sure which area to attack. I was thinking of getting another 1gb 4870 and doing crossfire but maybe I should try a new processor or SS HD to improve performance..let me know what you would do if you were me..thanks
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: heavy gaming occasional school work
My quick recommendation for upgrades are to buy the Samsung Spinpoint F3 500GB hard drive and add a second 4870. This will give you the best upgrade at you budget.
A SSD or CPU will take up your whole budget to make an upgrade worth it, where the F3 and 4870 will give you a good boost in your PC performance.
Cool I will look into that. When going crossfire does it matter who makes the card..would it work If i paired a cheaper HIS or Powercooler with the Diamond that I have in there now?
