Hi everyone,
I've posted here before regarding the pc I was purchasing about 2 years ago and I have to say some very valuable advice was given.
So now... 2 years down the line and my Birthday is coming up. I'm looking for some help on upgrading my PC.
Here is the current build.
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 (using Stock fan and also no OC'ing so I think its at 2.3GHz)
MOBO: Asus P5N-D (nForce 750i chipset, SLI)
RAM: 4GB DDR2(800mhz)
GFX CARD: ATI Radeon HD 4870 1GB
PSU: 700W EXCool Tornado
CASE: Antec Three hundred
So, theres my current PC build. And what I really want to do is to squeeze some more FPS out of it in games, play some more modern games and possibly even stream games on Justin.tv (Would be nice but isn't the most important thing i guess).
What I was thinking (and I'm a nooby at Hardware) maybe a new GFX card, 2 more gig of ram and a new CPU fan so I can safely Overcloak (cos as it is right now my PC gets pretty damn hot lol).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!. Thanks for you valuable time and help. Thanks in advance.
Oh!, by the way. I have around £250 to spend on upgrades .
