Primo GTX 660

Hi there. Returning customer but new forum member...

I've been in need of a new computer for a while but I'm on a small budget of £800 of less. I spotted this computer that looks pretty decent. My main concern though is the motherboard. I'll be having the 2TB HDD and windows 7.

My current PC has a GTX 460, dual core i3 3.07 GHz, and and GA-H55M-UD2H motherboard, and 4 GB memory. Now, what I'm wondering is, is this worth the upgrade? I will be playing quite demanding games.

I am willing to buy a different system if anyone can suggest it, too.

not going to upgrade your cpu in that socket unless second hand tbh LGA 1156 Intel as no upgrade path here anyway,

but as you can use other bits to save money etc, you could always do a self build if your happy doing it?

something like,

with a new card etc?

I was thinking that, but I have an Antec 300 case, and knowing so little about computers I don't know if it would fit. Is there a case you can recommend?

 

[Fintar]

yes it would fit easy

okay, thank you very much. just one last question and I can quit bugging you. I have a corsair CX600 PSU, is this adequate, if not, what kind of PSU should I be looking at?

edit: sorry i can't read, just noticed you linked one

another thing I thought of, would I have to buy windows 7 again or could I copy it the new HDD? I don't know about a reinstall because it came with the computer and says nothing on the box. (sorry i'm a computer noob)

just thinking i could maybe get a better motherboard with the money i save instead
