Morning OCuk people.
I've let me machine fall to decay a once might(ish) power house receiving constant upgrades has become old and tired. Last thing I bought was a Crucial SSD and even that was ages ago. I'm also a little (lot) out of touch with the latest gear.
I currently have:
Q6600 @ 2.4ghz (was 3.4 but the motherboard failed and the one I had spare really doesn't oc well)
ATI 4870x2
Now I'm going to upgrade the lot but in two stages, I'm holding out for a Sandybridge Bundle from OCuk but is it worth buying a new graphics card now then the rest next month/month after. Up to this card I've always bought nVidia and I'm not 100% convinced with ATI cards so I think I'll go back, which card is going to be a decent upgrade over the 4870x2 ?
I don't need bleeding edge and don't really want to pay £400+.
Cheers.
