..so I would like some level headed people to talk me out of it with a clip around the ear and some advice please!
My current pc hasn't been updated since 2011ish when I bought my GPU - a 6950, and its age is really starting to show.
Right now it has a Q6600, 4GB RAM and the 6950 all lead along by a copy of Vista begging to rest.
Originally I was thinking along the lines of AMDs 8 core FX's or maybe the I3's to keep costs down, but I love a bit of Planetside 2 and the more cores the better it seems.
Monitor and peripherals are ok and there's some other bits I'd like to keep as well if possible:
Case - Antec P182 - was viewed as a decent case back in the day, hopefully it still is?
Soundcard - Asus Xonar D2 - think it's the D2, it's the PCI not PCIe version
PSU - PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610
