New Build or Upgrade? (advice plz)

[DeadMetal17]

Hi guys, got a nice bonus coming in from work of around £2000 (actually a big mess with being under-payed for years) but anyway my first thought was New PC a friend told me i should just upgrade what I have, since im Clueless about specs I thought id ask the nice people who helped me choose the parts & guided me in building it in the first place (that's you guys ) anyway here is what I have

Current Build:

Spoiler

• Asus Rampage IV GENE
• Intel Core i7-3820 3.60GHz
• Corsair H100 Hydro Series
• 2GB Gigabyte GTX 680 Windforce3X
• 16GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600MHz
• OCZ ZX Series 1250W '80 Plus Gold' Modular
• Samsung 840 Evo SSD 500GB
• Asus Xonar D2X

was also toying with the idea of setting up dual-monitors (actually just bought an AOC G2460PQU 24" Monitor this year), anyway would you recommend a New Build, or some Upgrades. all suggestions/advice welcomed

That spec still looks strong apart from the gfx card, that is if you game on it.

So how about a new gfx card+monitor?

hey stulid good to see u again, & yeah i spend most of my time gaming

Go for a big screen (Gsync maybe) and a 980ti, that is a large upgrade from a 680.

when i mentioned the thought of building something new to a friend at work he instantly asked to buy my current PC from me (no idea how much it would be worth selling for) but was an option there (of course if u don't think its worth starting from scratch then Im happy to just upgrade

I dont see the need to make any other changes to that spec, maybe overclock the cpu a bit also.

ok m8, which 980ti would u recommend m8?

The new Gigabyte xtreme 980ti at £550 is getting lots of great reviews, excellent cooler with 0db mode and they have used high quality chokes in its construction to eliminate coli whine.
