I have bought one configuration without Graphic Card, Cooler and it quite lacks RAM, so now I am left to upgrading, but I am pretty clueless. I use my PC for plenty of things: Photo editing, image drawing, 3D modeling (Not hardcore, just a hobby), playing some interesting games (On High is just enough, no need for Max even tho its welcome ;P) and playing thing called Second Life. Also I like my PC quiet =P
Anyways, here are my current specs!
Configuration Helium
Motherboard: INTEL BLKDH55PJ
Processor: Intel Core i3 540 (Socket 1156 LGA)
2GB of RAM, 1333MHz
HITACHI HDS721010CLA332, 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5"
Power supply: 420W ATX
Don't think there's anything more to add to the current list. (Yeah, I'm on integrated at the moment!) Now, my idea is to get additional 4GB of RAM at least. Graphic card something among lines of these or any of your ideas: Gainward nVidia GeForce GTX 460, Sapphire ATI Radeon HD6850, XFX ATI Radeon HD5830...
If I get some of those, I bet I'll need better Power supply, I'm not that good with those and I'm not quite sure which one to get. Also, I am unsure if I need cooler and how good one. I'm from Croatia so we don't have exactly all the stuff.
My remaining budget is about 250-300 Euros.
Thanks guys, hope to see some help here!
