Basically I've had simultaneous multiple component failure, and need a new PC.
I already have a new PSU (600W), and I'm pretty sure my hard drives are still functioning, and my case still does the business. Unsure about my RAM.
So that means I need a new Motherboad, CPU, and GFX. I figure since I'm buying new components anyway, I may as well get new RAM too, as I fancy having 8Gb, and its pretty cheap.
Performance wise I'm not that fussed. Previously I was running a AMD 965 + 5870, and that was enough power for everything I did. So I'll be looking at getting components to a similar/slightly greater performance than this.
From what I've seen, Intel is king at the moment, but the sheer range of different Intel motherboards is a bit daunting.
So basically I need a new:
CPU
Motherboard
Graphics card
RAM (8 Gb)
No budget has been set, but the lower the better, performance shouldn't be lower than my old machine.
Cheers!
