SFF Small Upgrade

[jrodga2k5]

Hi guys,

Sadly my i7 920 has pretty much given up the ghost by the looks of things so I will be looking for a replacement into an SFF setup.

All that's required is a decent Motherboard and CPU (of course looking for something of an improvement even if slightly).

Not too educated on the Micro ATX front but the previous Mobo was an Asus Rampage GENE II which I did like to be honest.

I do have one Stick of DDR3 8GB in place which is doing the job but throwing some RAM in if possible would be of interest.

Budget £300-350.

HD7970 is the gfx card, Sugo SG01 is the case.

Cheers.

Cheers for the suggestion Stulid...certainly some food for thought.

Done a rebuild, reseat etc tonight so if that doesn't sort the issues I'll be making the change.
