I posted around a month ago, before Bulldozer was released, about upgrading my PC. Posted in another section but thought I might make a post here and see what people think I should upgrade.
I'll state my current specs:
PSU - Corsair HX750.
GPU - MSI Twin Frozr II 6870.
CPU Cooling - Corsair H50.
Case - HAF 922.
A lot of fans.
I think thats all the specs needed really.
I am upgrading from a E4800 which has served be good since 2008. Also a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P board which has bugged out on me (cant overclock with it anymore due to BIOS issues and shit) but has done its job admirably.
This gear has lasted me essentially 4 years. Currently I am feeling like my computer is starting to struggle with workload and gaming in general and would love to upgrade!
Looking for a CPU, Mobo and RAM since I just recently upgraded all my other kit on my PC.
I was told to wait for Bulldozer to get released, and I have and from what I read most people arent impressed by it. I want a system that can last me around 2-3 years without struggle. I think the Intel 2500K which is $200 AU atm seems like the best CPU for my needs. Unless someone can state otherwise if their is something better around, then please do so.
Motherboard and RAM are what I am looking for. When I asked about a month ago, people recommended the Asus P8P67 series or Asrock Fatal1ty series mobos. If there is any better options out there please do post. I want a motherboard that can give me essentially all I need for gaming and futureproofing for the next few years since I dont like to upgrade my PC too frequently.
Want some good quality RAM that can last me for 3 years or so.
Budget is around $300-$600 AU which should cater for everything.
What I am going to use my PC for:
- Gaming (lots of it).
- Streaming.
- Video Editing.
- Upgrading to double monitor in future (22 inch and 28 inch).
- Future proof for 3 years or so.
- Multitasking.
So, CPU, Mobo and RAM. That is what I am looking for.
Thats about it really. I am using http://umart.com.au/newindex2.phtml?bid=4, to buy all my stuff.
Cheers guys!
