Hi all,
So its time to do an upgrade, but first i would like to hear your advices. After some search this is what i pretend to get:
- CPU - i7 860 or 870 (Socket 1156) or 930 (1366) (im not sure)
- Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 or maybe a Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3
- Memory - Ripjaws F3-12800CL7D-4GBRH (2Gx2)
- Radeon 5850 1Gb (im not sure which brand)
Im willing to spend around 800 US Dollars (500-600 Euros). This will replace my current rig:
- Nvidia XFX GTX 9800 512Mb
- Gigabyte GA-EX38-DS5
- GSKILL DDR2 F2 8500 CL5D PK
- Intel E8400
My monitor is a 23" inch DELL U2311H (1920x1080) and my power supply is a Corsair 520W modular (Do you think this can feed the new rig?). I will be using the PC for 3D modelling work (particularly Blender 3D), GIS, some photography editing and games. So what do you think? any suggestions?
Thank you
Nuno
