Hello guys, many thanks in advance for the advice.
I've been outside the loop for a year or 2 so I'd be grateful of your advice.
I currently have:
Gigabyte DS3 Rev 1.0
E6300 @ 3.15
x1950xtx
4 GB Geil ultra pc6400
etc etc.
I'm considering an upgrade but I'm fairly limited on cash at the moment.
What I'm looking at is a Q6700 and 4870HD, both on the weekly specials.
I believe the Q6700 is the max my board will take being limited to 1066 and should out perform the equivalent dual core for my needs?
Does this sound reasonable or is there something I’m missing?
Also I may have to settle for one or the other and revisit the upgrade in a month or 2, which should I upgrade first?
Cheers.
Martin.
