Mini Upgrade To New System

ShaggyRS6 · 17 Feb 2009 at 13:04

Chaps,

As you can see from my spec below, its not bad. But having just come into a little cash I was wondering what I can improve upon, if anything.

Should I get another 6GB Ram? Is it worth going SS for a HDD right now?

I may get a modular PSU for power management issues. Or shall I water cool it?

Ideas?

Another monitor, another hard drive? wouldn't waste money on another 6gigs really. watercooling could be a good isea, are you overclocked? think i'm going to take the plunge and add water to my system soon.

If you give me your system and buy 1 from new I think that would work

+1 for another hard drive, you can never have to much space.

Faster hard drive, such as a WD Velociraptor should do the trick in giving you faster loading times, an extra 6GB RAM is not worth it atm. Watercooling is another good option if you can stand the idea of water in a computer as I hear it's silent as opposed to most air cooling solutions. Also if you have money to throw away an i7 extreme may well be a good bet. Anything else worth upgrading on your system? Not really

Watercooling / 2x 150/300gb raptors in Raid-0 + another 1TB hd.
