Birthday is coming up, and I am debating if there is anything I should upgrade on my computer. Since I added the SSD drives and have been using Windows 7(which fixes the shudder for the most part). I have been really happy with the performance I get out of the machine.
My current rig is as follows;
Antec 300 Case
Xigmatec 750W PSU
Intel E8400 OCed at 4.0 ghz
2x G.SKILL FM-25S2S-64GB 2.5" 64GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid state disk
500gb Seagate Barracuda 7200.11
1TB Phantom Data External Drive
4x2gb of G.Skill DDR2 1066
Sapphire HD 4870 X2 (Only have one PCI-Express slot)
Asus P5Q SE/R
1 generic DVD drive reader/writer (no need for Blue Ray)
Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer
SENNHEISER HD 280PRO Head Phones
Logitech G15 keyboard and G5 Mouse
Acer 22inch 1680x1050 monitor.
I am leaning towards getting a second monitor. The only problem with getting another one is my old one will be set at lower resolution which will be a tad annoying. I'd like to avoid changing out any major components specifically motherboards. Mainly because I plan on building an i7 based rig within a year and something like that just won't be that big a difference performance wise I don't think.
I am considering this..
