Ive been pondering over an upgrade for a long time, and just seen the bundles on offer but I dont really need an overclocked package.
Current spec:
E8500 Core 2 Duo
4GB Ram
64bit Vista Premium
AMD Radeon 6670 2Gb
Asus Rampage Motherboard
OCZ 600w PSU
2 x 1tb HDD
120gb SSD
Lian Li v1010 case
The computer is mainly used for photo processing (Adobe Lightroom) and surfing the net with a tiny bit of gaming thrown in.
Usb 3.0 is a must, I'll probably upgrade to Windows 7 64 at the same time.
Personally I think the 2 HDD's, SSD, PSU and graphics card can be recycled into the new system.
The case is huge so it would be nice to downsize with similar quality but its not essential and can always be done later.
This was the last system I bulit circ 2007/8 so been out of the fold for a while and not really clued up on current systems.
