Hey guys! My old rig is starting to fell apart so I decided to upgrade it..
Since it still runs on ddr2 I had to change pretty much everything in it haha
However my question is mostly about mobos and cpus...There are some bundles that are on sale right now and they sound pretty interesting.. I've narrowed it down quite a bit and I kinda need help in which one to pick.
Here are the bundles:
Core™ i5-3570K Processor Bundle w/ Asus P8Z77-V LK Motherboard....320$
Core™ i5-4570 Processor Bundle w/ MSI Z87-G43 Motherboard............330$
Core™ i5-4570 Processor Bundle w/ Asus Z87-A Motherboard...............350$
Core™ i5-4670 Processor Bundle w/ Asus Z87-A Motherboard...............370$
Core™ i5-4670K Processor Bundle w/ Asus Z87-A Motherboard.............390$
Core™ i5-4670K Processor Bundle w/ MSI Z87-G45 Motherboard...........400$
Core™ i5-4670K Processor Bundle w/ Asus Z87-Plus Motherboard.........419$
For the K series, I wasn't planning on overclocking them at first (maybe for the first year or so).
Thank You for your help guys in advance
EDIT: Oh silly me I've completely forgot..I should use this computer for gaming, I do some video editing sometimes, will use for school, internet surfing, I'm a big music fan as well but they have all similar soundcards.
EDIT2: By the way, I do know that the last 2 are the best ones, but are they really worth the extra money and is it overkill ? or will the 4570, Asus z87 A (for example) do the trick perfectly fine ?
Thanks for your help guys
Oh and do you think a 550W PSU would be enough ?
I have a 650TI plus a SSD and a Hard Drive of 500Gb
I dont seem to be able to change my thread to a question thread instead of a discussion, so if a mod could change it I would appreciate it
I'm sure the ones who helped me would as well
