Hi All,
I would appreciate some advice if anyone has had experience of attempting this...
Just before windows 7 was released I built a fairly decent spec PC. I wont bore you with too many details but its based around a core2 duo E8400 and an asus P5Q Pro mobo with 8gb ddr2. My main beef with it is it has the disappointing Vista 64 bit installed.
I would like to update it a little by using windows 7 64 bit and having an SSD as the drive for the OS and some popular programs.
Is it worth doing on this older mobo with no SATA 6gb/s? Would a complete rebuild be better using an i5 2500k and a SATA 6gb/s mobo?
Thanks in advance for any replies
Jim
