Hi all,
I'm looking to "spritz" up my PC with some new hardware to get some newer features/better fan control (Mainly motherboard bits). I've not got a massive budget to do it with (£400-£500ish plus any from selling parts)
My main concern for the current system is although I could get a new motherboard their isn't much choice for MATX>= and what is out there is quite expensive considering it is not the newest architecture.
My current system is:
5820K stock clock
EVGA X99 Micro 2
32GB Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz RAM
GTX 1080 Reference (Edit: It's not a Ti, my brain was on autopilot for that bit)
Samsung 845 Pro SSD (850GB)
So, if you were in this situation would you go new board/CPU, new board or stick for a while? (Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm just looping at the moment)
