Hi guys this is my first post on this forums as i have now almost 4 years of knowin this page that has been very useful to me but now i have a little pain in the ass with my pc.
i have my build 3 year old but last month i updated it on many aspects for a better performance mostly in games my current specs are this:
AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE with 4º core unlocked and overclocked @ 3.6Gzh (Multiplier x18)
Cooler Master Hyper TX3 (i hate the contact of this thing but im a little scared of lapping it)
Asus M5A97 the base motherboard non EVO or Pro.
6GB DDR3 1 Stick 4Gb Kingston Hyper X Blu + 1 Stick 2gb Kingston Hyper X Blu both 1333 @ Dual Channel.
Sapphire HD 5750 Vapor X
1 Western Digital Caviar Black 500gb Sata III + 1 Samsung 1TB Sata II (backup) + 1 Western Digital Scorpio 320 2.5" Sata II (from a broken laptop used for backup mostly backups of games)
Pixxo Jaguar 600 Watt PSU (Is not a firecracker you can compare it to a Cooler Master xtreme power plus 500 watt max wattage is 460 and amps. 36 or 38 i dont remember.
NZXT Lexa S Case
I will update the Grapichs car to an HD 7850-7870 when they come out since this card is doing fine and i play at 1366x768 due to my 19" monitor.
I will update the Power Supplie to an Antec 750 Watts or an Cooler Master GX 750 Watts or even a Cooler Master Silent Pro 700 watts all depends of the buget.
so this is my main question...should i update my CPU to an X6 or FX 8150 i don't say this merely because of the HotFix but because me as many of you i have waited for BD a "long time" and i think i have an hipotetical X4 965-975.
and if you tell me a good PSU instead of the ones im having in mind that would be useful too.
oh yeah and i forgot due to my location (Monterrey, Mexico) if i buy something from US it would be from TigerDirect or Amazon...of curse this things can be purchased here but with prices 3x higher...like the Antec 750 i can buy one here for around...140-160 USD the FX thankfully is 10-20 USD more expensive and sometimes even cheaper. so what CPU and PSU would be fine for me?
oh and excuse my bad english.
