Hi,

I am looking to upgrade my 5 years old PC (E6750 + p35) with budget around £400, please see my list below:

Case: Corsair Obsidian 650D
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77-D3H
CPU: Intel Core i5-3470 3.20GHz
RAM: Corsair XMS3 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
PSU: Corsair 850W (from old pc)
GPU: Sapphire 6870 (from old pc)
HDD: C300 SSD (from old pc)

Any other suggestions? I don't overclock but should I up my budget a bit to get an i5 3570 instead of 3470?

Many thanks.

Today its only 1 click and you have a 4.4Ghz without hassle.
I didnt want to OC, but as you can see I did OC a bit since my cpu aint for overclocking but I wish it was!

Idleman, that 500R is a good proposition :)
