Hi, I'm new to this forum and I was directed to this section from CPU and Components section, where I posted a question on which processor to choose.
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/269783-28-which-processor
So before telling my requirements, let me tell you that I'm not good at understanding technical details. All i want is a good system that gives me no trouble
Budget- Moderate (300$ to 500$).
Since its an upgrade, I'll not be going for Monitor, keyboard, Hard disk and stuff.
Purpose- General use, Internet surfing, working on applications such as photoshop, visual studio etc, Gaming (sometimes, but i'm not too keen on gaming)
Video Card- No immediate requirement.
I'm upgrading my computer after 7 years. I want this upgrade to last for a long term. I don't want to upgrade my comp again for at least 5 years from now.
So here are my simple requirements. I just want to change my Processor, motherboard and memory. Considering the above, can you guys suggest what is best?
Hope I haven't violated the forum posting rules.
Thanks
