My existing system is.
Intel Xeon 5670
24GB triple channel
Full tower case
ATI 480
Coolermaster Stacker 810
500GB 2.5" SSD
PCI -E NVME adaptor with 1TB NVME
Noctua heatsink - able to get adaptor this HSF onto new CPU? Unsure of model, It's a large very tower with dual fan
USB 2 front hub
Unsure of PSU, possibly 800W Bequiet or Seasonic
27" 1440p freesync VA monitor, with a couple of faulty LED, will decide if annoying enough to replace monitor
If or when I upgrade will a motherboard, memory & CPU bundle fit ok
I wouldn't mind replacing the USB hub on front with modern 5.25" bay with USB3, USB-2 etc.
Are GPU's still ridiculously expensive or have they dropped down to sensible price?
For best value for gaming, AMD or Intel CPU this gen?
And for GPU, AMD or Nvidia?
I've just added two CPU/mobo combo of both types, and 32GB memory, just random things to see pricing, obviously not going to order two CPU and two mobo.
