Hey guys, I need a suggestion for an upgrade to my pc below. As you guys can see the spec is pretty much outdated. I'm using it for gaming only and it's handling a 24" screen. I just want to upgrade the processor, ram and motherboard, budget <1k if possible if 1k+ give me a good reason why should I add a little bit more for that.
Extra information on my current hardware
Q8400 2.4 OC @ 3.0Ghz (NOT REUSING)
4GB DDR2 (NOT REUSING)
Asus P5KPL/EPU G31 (NOT REUSING)
Asus 7850 OC (REUSING)
2x HDD (REUSING)
1x DVD Drive (REUSING)
Tagan 700watt (REUSING)
Thermaltake Dokker casing (REUSING)
I think that should be sufficient?

QUOTE(Minecrafter @ Dec 24 2013, 08:02 PM) It has 8 CORES,4 more than the i5 4440 and high clock speed.But as i just looked at this CPU vs CPU,i'd go with Intel. http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/363/AMD_F...i5_i5-4440.htmlHaving unlocked multiplier is kinda sweet though, any other sifu wanna throw a piece of your thoughts? |
