Thats a huge jump in all respects, looks like a great build.

What kind of cooler are you getting for the CPU ?
Also don't forget about a good psu they are the most essential part of a pc.

ShadowFold · Mar 29, 2009

Looks like an awesome rig! I got a 7750 in my rig right now, beastly CPU once you OC it!

boredgunner · Mar 29, 2009

I would have gone the Intel route since they are so much better (EVGA 750i FTW MOBO and an E8400 processor). Either way you'll see huge improvements.

LittleLizard · Mar 30, 2009

you will see a pretty, pretty big jump. if u are going to oc, there is a thread about how oc that processor (kuma overclocking thread)

r9 · Mar 30, 2009

That 7750 has great value if you don`t OC. If you take OC in to account than I would say that E5200 would be much better choice. Either way it would be nice upgrade.

hmm i'm not sure the nvidia based motherboard is the way to go. If you go intel get a p45 based mobo, if you stick with amd i guess it is either nvidia or amds.

TricksterMatt · Mar 30, 2009

Thanks everyone for the replies ^_^... And I got the Corsair 620 Watts PSU... So all should run smoothly and perfectly ^_^

McFlips · Mar 30, 2009

Congrats man, looks great.
