Hi Guys,
I'm planning to build or upgrade my current PC to make it really silent, but I need a lot of suggestion from you guys who have lot of experience out there
There is my plan and I hope you guys can give me some suggestion. Budget $1500 or lower.
I am using my computer for daily and gaming such as (DOTA 2, Sleeping Dogs, Watch Dogs)
My current PC fan run so noisy when I play Watchdogs or Sleeping Dogs thats why I consider to upgrade or built a whole new PC.
But I am not in a hurry, so If there is a hardware that will coming soon with more quality and reasonable price I will consider it.
Here is what my currently PC build now (built roughly 3 years ago):
OS : Win 7
MoBo : Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3
CPU : Intel i7-2600 @3.40Ghz 8CPUS
Memory : Patriot 16GB (4x4GB)
GPU : ASUS GTX 560 1GB DDR 5 (buts it written in my dxdiag the memory is 4GB)
PSU : 650W
STORAGE : 120GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD , 30GB SSD (forget the brand name), 1TB HDD (forget the brand name)
Here what I planned:
Display, Keyboard, Mouse, Speaker already have it.
Overclocking ? NO
