Advice on what to upgrade

[joeygfx]

Hi Guys,

I'm in the mood to upgrade some parts in my PC which I bought from OCUK back in August as I feel I need some more juice out of it!

Ideally I want to have atleast 8GB RAM and anything else that will help. I upgraded my PSU last month to a OCZ 550W ZT Series

I have a budget of 300 quid (I know, not a lot) but will keep upgrading as I go on.

(I mainly use it to play WoW,BF3 and other games)

You also may want to consider a HD 7870 2GB, which should be available to buy next week.

Also, an SSD is a good option - even if it's just a 60-64GB one to put the OS, the key apps and a couple of games on- as it will give a nice performance boost in terms of loading times and a generally feeling of "quickness". This one is a good SSD. If you want to try 128GB then this is a very nice price for an excellent drive.

As for more RAM, a 8GB 1600MHz kit can be had for £38 these days - so it may be worth upgrading.

Yep, have been looking at SSD's too. Looks good.

If I get 2x Crucial Ballistix Sport 4GB (2x2GB) = 16GB, will that be too much?

Looks like SSD, GPU and RAM are the main things I need It looks like.
