Hey guys!!
I wanna upgrade my close to two year old setup!
I currently have:
Abit AB9 QuadGT
E6400 @ 8x444MHz (3550 MHz)
2x1GB OCZ + 2x1GB Mushkin memory
Leadtek 7900GT VGA-card
That thing isn't really "slow", but newer games will run only with some things turned off etc...
Now I was thinking of upgrading that rig, but I'm a bit unsure:
1.:Should I get a Quadcore, or will a Dualcore (with some decent o'cing) be better for me?? I use the rig for gaming, no video-editing or whatever...
2.: If Quad or Dualcore, what CPU to get?? I think the E8400 are nice overclockers??
3.: What mainboard/chipset to get?? I don't want to go with an Asus again, maybe I will try DFI again this time?? What board should I get? I don't need "fancy" WLAN or whatever onboard, I don't need a RAID controller or whatever, just a real good overclocker with lots of BIOS options etc.
4.: I need a new videocard, too...I think the ATI 4850 is the best "bang for the buck" at the moment, right?
5.: I think I want to switch from 4x1GB to 2x2GB, what memory should I get????
Thanks in advance for your help!!
