Just to start, my PC at the moment is this:
Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor
ASUS P67 P8P67 Motherboard
Corsair Professional Series HX+ 650W '80+ Gold' Modular Power Supply
Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C8 1333MHz Dual-Channel
Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache HDD
GeForce GTX 560 Ti Graphics Card
LG GH24NS95 24x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black)
I also have a small wireless card.
My case is some kind of silverstone Raven with the motherboard at 90 degrees, meaning you have to lift the top off to access USB ports and such, this has turned out to be a massive pain in the arse for me so i'm going to get another case.
I also want to upgrade my gfx card to be able to play most to all games on max settings with multiple displays. Can you recommend a graphics card, preferably Nvidia, that will accommodate me?
Also, I wondered about whether or not to invest in some water cooling, I have no experience with building a machine with watercooling so any help would be appreciated.
Lastly i'm sure these upgrades will require a new PSU so any reccomendation will be welcome.
I have £1000~ to spend altogether.
Thank you.
