Looking to upgrade

[ElliorR]

Hello, I built this PC some 3 years ago, xmas 2010, and as this is the longest I've gone without upgrading it's time to do so.

Currently I have

i5 760
Nvidia GTX 460
8 gb ram which came with the mobo and CPU as part of an overclocked bundle
600w OCZ modular PSU
Gigabyte p55-USB3 mobo

The new bundle I am looking at is...

I would upgrade to the Corsair Hydro H80i

And this for the graphics card

Is that a big improvement over my current spec? (I'm so out of touch having got back into motorbikes).

Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

It would be a good upgrade, yes.

But would you be willing to put it together yourself? And what is your budget? I assume this upgrade is for gaming purposes.

Also: which case do you have?

Yes, I've built all my own computers for as long as I can remember.

Budget is up to £700 as I don't game anywhere near as much as I used to but when I got Thief I realised my build had come to the end of it's gaming life.

Cooler Master CM 690 II

It's DDR 3.

You've both given me some things to consider. I have no brand loyalty between Nvidia & AMD as all I want is the best I can get for the money and end of the day no game producer is going to make a game that will not run on one brand or the other.
