Hey Guys & Girls,
I'm looking for a little bit of advice, I'm currently looking at upgrading my gaming rig and looking for a little input. I've a budget of £450.00 ($740)
Current Rig is,
Xeon X3330 @ 3.6ghz - Zalman 9800 Cooler
XFX 780i 3 way SLI
Point of View Nvidia 460 768mb
Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR2
x2 Seagate 7200 250GB in Raid 0
Ocz Stealthxstream 2 700w PSU
Not sure if i should buy another 460 for SLI (and maybe a SSD),However i'm worried about bottlenecks i've read alot of conflicting views about this recently if the Core 2 Quad Xeon can handle it? Resolution i use is 1920x1080 (if gaming allows) or should i go sandybridge K series and forget about another 460?
I doubt i will be able to go Sandybridge and get another 460 for SLI within my budget. - is it worth considering the AM3 route with lack of SLI support but possible Bulldozer support in the future?
I look forward to your replies! Thanks in advance!
