Due to a bit of a weird PC meltdown situation I'm looking to upgrade. More for music App performance than anything else.
Current spec:
Opteron 180
2Gb Geil Ultra
MSI K8N Platinum
Nvidia 9600GT
Tagan 480Watt.
I'm keeping the current graphics card because I only really play WoW and it's fine for that. I'm not looking for a monster spec, Dual core is fine for my needs over Quad I think. I'm also running XP so 2Gb RAM will do me for now
Here's my starting point:
I would consider a Q6600 if it's pretty much a given that it will run at 3Ghz+
I'm running 3 Hard drives, with that in mind would my Tagan 480W be sufficient? Do I really need the Corsair?
Thoughts gentlemen please.
