Hey Guys,
I bought my computer from CyberPower around 2008 and now it's time to do some upgrading. I was looking to spend some where around $500-650$ in upgrades.
Here is what i plan on re-using:
WesternDigital 320GB Caviar Blue HD
Ultra 600W power supply
Cooler Master Cosmos case
Cooler Master AquaGate s1
I want to focus on upgrading the motherboard, processor, ram and graphics card. I do play a lot of games, so the extra performance would be nice. With the prices now, I am not sure if i should go the Phenom II route, or the i5/i7. what do you guys prefer for my budget?
Also, if the AquaGate s1 makes it complicated, i am game for another cooler that is more to date that fits my set up. I believe my case fits ATX and ATX Extended only? (not 100% on that).
Thank you
