500$ Upgrade

[Vixa]

Hello,

Want to add some fresh parts to my current rig,

I will keep PSU(VX450W corsair), HDD, and Graphic card(3850hd but its enough for me atm, eventually will change to
7750 or 7770 probably)

I want to buy new cpu, motherboard and ram.


Here is what i picked currently;

CPU - 3570k

COOLING - SilentiumPC / Fortis HE1225 (very popular and recommended in my country)

MOTHERBOARD - Gigabyte Z77-d3h Motherboard ( not sure here, but I dont need any SLI or extra ports, just curious about OCing, if it would be enough to squeez around 4,2ghz, if not then I would probably aim for Z77X-D3h much cheaper than Z77-extreme4 in my country)

RAM - 16gb of low profile ram (dont know which one exactly)

I need strong machine for multitasking, Im not much of a gamer - just old games or new but not demanding, currently sitting on 775 e2160 dual core and it's running really slow sometimes

Hope you can help me out with my doubts!
Budget is 500$

Hmmm this upgrade shouldn't cost you $500, unless parts are a lot more expensive in your country. Also you should be able to get 4.2 ghz.
