I built my first computer last year and now I am looking for small upgrades to it without dropping a ton of money. Right now I have:
CPU: Q6600 oced to 3.0 ghz (for some reason, I cant really get any higher w/o instability, my current voltage I believe is v1.45 to keep it stable.. dont know why it is so high)
Mobo: MSI P7N Platinum w/ a 750i
Cooler: Tuniq Tower 120 (used... kinda want to get a better one)
Graphics: Asus Engtx 260 216sp stock clock
Power: PC Power and Cooling 750w
Case: Cooler Master HAF 922
HDD: Samsung Spindlepoint F3 1tb I believe
Screen: Asus 22in screen (cant remember off the top of my head ) w/ a 2ms response time @ 1680x1050
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
My main question is: Is it even worth it to upgrade it right now? Technically, all I am thinking about doing is MS office (MS WORD, EXCEL, etc) + some programing for my major as well as Star Craft 2. I know my computer right now can handle it, so IDK if I should bother. However, something inside me wants to upgrade it anyway (sigh). If I did, what would benefit me the most? A bigger screen? Better CPU cooler? (Thinking about the CoolIT ECO b/c I hate blowing dust out of the fins in my Tuniq tower). I dont need a mouse or keyboard, they are fine. Any suggestions? Or just a plain no, dont waste money?
Price for a upgrade would maybe be 200 or less...
