Hi i have had my Dell 560MT for about 3 years now and i finally want to build my own PC.
Can you tell me what would be worth changing to get the most cost effective pricing so that the build will last long, allow for overclocking and whether or not SLI/CrossFire is worth it? Thanks guys! This is my first build.
