My PC is running like a dog these days, some issues when I turn it on and it will take several minutes and reboot during the process (it like gets stuck at POST).. randomly wakes up from sleep etc...
I generally just do Lightroom/Photoshop work these days with casual gaming though feel like more RAM could be handy...
I currently have: Intel Core i5-3570K, GIGABYTE Z77-D3H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 and 8GB of Corsair DDR3-1600 RAM.
The RAM and CPU were both purchased in 2012 and the GPU is the newest component which was December 2015. I suppose I should replace the mobo/CPU and RAM at the same time as imagine one of them is causing me issues. Not interested in upgrading my graphics card.
I wouldn't really want to spend more than £400 but hardware seems rather expensive these days , especially if I want 16GB RAM.
Any help greatly appreciated as I haven't got a clue about any HW these days
