Hi, I would like to upgrade my PC, currently:

Q6600
2GB 800MHz
Gigabyte DS3R
8800GT
Corsair 520W
Lian LI PC7+

I am thinking of keeping my PSU and case if suitable. I am thinking of i5, 8GB and a compatible motherboard.

I will also add a graphics card later, but that shouldn't be a problem once I upgrade the rest.

Please can you give me some suggestions.
 
Hi guys, I am not really sure how to overclock, I tried with Q6600 but have no idea.

Honosuseri, this looks good, I might just leave the heatink. Can you suggest a graphics card as well please. Around 150 if possible.

Also my case and PSU are compatible?
 
Hi Honosusersi and everybody else,

My PC has died( I believe it's the graphics card), I am going a head and order the items hono suggested, I am gonna add a 660.

Just final check that everything is compatible:
i5 3570k
Gigabyte Z77-D3H Intel Z77
Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB

and cheapest 660 I can find.

I will be using my HDD, Corsair 520w and Lian Li PC7+.

Cand somebody just confirm everything please.


Cheers
 
Hi Bacon thanks a lot, It's GPU issue since I get weird graphical issues on the scree(u know the ones you get when your GPU heats up). Also, I just put an old 6600 and it works fine.

So the GPU you suggested is better than 660? Also, are the cheaper i5's any good? And one more question do you think it will be a good idea to get a more expensive motherboard that is possibly more future proof i.e. will allow me to upgrade in few years time without having to replace it?

Cheers
 
Would I not be able to save some money by getting a cheaper mobo, as long at it is compatible ?

I am not planning to OC so do you think I should get a cheaper i5?

I have decided to get the 660, always been nvidia fan.

Cheers
