Hey guys!
I am going to have 600 euros next month to splash out so I am not sure what to use it on. Or even to use it on my system!!
So what should I do??
Either get a Sapphire HD 5870 1Gb on ebay from USA for 300 euros. Which is around 100 euros cheaper than buying from my usual store " komplett.ie "
Or:
Go and buy a new X58 mainboard + 6gb Ram and I7-920 and get a cooler and overclock it as high as I can. I believe it's 3.8Ghz???
So what would you recommend?
I have a GTX 280 1gb. would I notice a difference anyway with the HD 5870???
Or wait for the 2gb version?
or maybe I don't actually need a system upgrade??
Maybe I should consider spending it on something else??
if so.. What would you suggest!! go ahead and suggest anything!!
Maybe a monitor!!!! just say anything!!
Thanks in advance!
