Hi,
Have been looking at a new upgrade got an old system here so not sure whats compatible to take over to a new rig here is what i have
A8Ne- Motherboard
amd +4800 cpu
HD 6450
3 gig Ram (cant remmember what type but with my old rig been solw will need new)
Hyper R Modular 580w (want to keep if i can)
Lian Li Tall Tower so dont matter on size of cooler units has 6 drive bays and about 12 hd rack bays init tower is as tall as my desk
Monitor Dell2407wfp Will be keeping this
will be running Windows 7 64bit
have 1 sata drive in there and an ide one thats got all my games on but looking at motherbaords now i have noticed no more ide connections so probs need a new hard drive been thinking of getting a SDD for windows & 1tb drive for stoarge is this a good idea?
just dont know what cpu to go for as you can see when i built this rig years ago only had a few choices not theres so meny different configs to choose from i am lost how much memory does a good gameing system need these days i am hopeing for a quad core can do this buld in stages get hard drives then the rest manly just need some help on good harddrives these days SDD and sata one to get.
i cant use most of my games at moment Just cause 2 skyrim and a few others
had this rig in storage for the last couple of yeard due to space requirement but now i have a whole room dedicated for gameing
So been playing all my games on a laptop which is now starting to suffer with hardwere issues but have had it over 3 years so has not done bad it is a MSI gt725 laptop but want a dedicated gameing system
Any help much appricated
Budget around £400-500 with out the harddrives will have another 100 next week
