Good evening guys
Ive just re-acquired my old gaming PC from my ex gf and am planning to use it for a while before scrapping it for parts. Its been a while since I've built a system or even played on a PC so i'm not sure where to start, so thought it would be fun to get your opinions on what i should keep and what i should ditch! I built this PC about 10 years ago, it was a beast but now i'm not too sure!
Current specs
Case Antec 900
Mobo - Asus P6T
CPU - i7 920 (d0 stepping previous 4GHZ overclock )
GFX - GTX 570
sound card - Asus Xonar DX
Ram - 6GB DDR3 (3x2GB)
power - Corsair HX850W
Noctua heatsink and fan
Asus 24 inch monitor
Microsoft X6 keyboard
Logitech MX518 Mouse
creative fatality headset
Logitech Z4 speakers
I fear the only thing worth salvaging from the computer is the power supply? Im planning on a micro PC gamign PC next - will that work?
Any advice appreciated, budget £500 for next PC
