Approximate Purchase Date: Black Friday
Budget Range: $400-500 before taxes if possible
System Usage from Most to Least Important: I play Tera I primarily want to upgrade to have good fps in instances, I also play minecraft and a couple of facebook games.I browse alot usually have 10 tabs open in the background on google chrome.
Are you buying a monitor: No I currently have an acer monitor 1600x900 that I'm keeping
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I prefer newegg
Location: NYC
Parts Preferences: I'd like to upgrade to an intel cpu I've heard tera does not play well with amd.
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: No Tera doesn't benefit from crossfire
Additional Comments:
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My computer seems to just be really slow I've had it for awhile and I think it's time for an upgrade.
I have 4gb of ram I'd like to double that if possible or atleast go 6gb I constantly have memory issues.
I currently have the HD 6850 that I plan on keeping http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102908
and I have and Antec 500watt power supply http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371035
Hopefully I can keep both as I think the 6850 is still good. Tera is more cpu heavy than gpu and I don't plan on playing any fps games.
I've also never built a pc so if there is a prebuilt I could just stick my video card into that's in my budget that would be great. Thank you guys for your help
