Dear all!
I am planning to update from my X4 955. Mainly with regard to it is getting a bit slow in prototyping for simulations before porting to the big guns.
So Main purposes are Simulation/Gaming (potentially playing around a bit with VMs).
Planning on getting a R9 270 possibly a X version depending on CPU/Mobo combo. Should be a decent upgrade from the 560Ti.
16GB of RAM
Old HDD and Drives + windows
First of, AMD
FX-8320
GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P
Price: 200 quidish
2. Intel
i5 4570
ASUS H87-PRO (C2)
Price 260 quid
3.Intel
E3-1230v3
ASRock B85 Pro4
Price 280 quid
What do you think will be best? Overall budget is 700 pounds.
Cheers for your answers!
