Hi Guys,
My current setup is:
Proccy: Intel P4 3.2 Ghz
Mobo: Intel 945 GNT
RAM: 3 Gigs Value ram (2x1 , 2x 512 - dual channel)
HDD: 1x 160 GB , 1x 250 GB , 1x 1 TB (all seagate)
GFX CARD: Palit 9600 GT 1 GB (Factory Overclocked)
PSU: Cooler Master Extreme Power 500W
DVD Writer: LG
I intend to upgrade mainly my processor and motherboard to contemporary standards . I use my machine mostly for gaming and other general purpose computing. Please suggest a good config. My budget is 15k-20k max.
I was thinking of getting AMD Phenom X4 965 BE and one of the possible motherboards:
Asus M4A89GTD Pro/USB3 (or) MSI 890GXM-G65 (or) Biostar TA890GXE (or) GIGABYTE GA-890GPA-UD3H . A good motherboard with USB 3.0 support is preferable so that it is a bit future proof. It needn't have on board graphics since I shall be using my graphics card anyways.
Only Mobo+Proccy are my priorities but some good config including some ddr3 ram will really hit the sweet spot.
Also Do I need to upgrade my PSU for the new components?
Thank you in advance. All suggestions are welcome!
