Hi,
Considering whether I need an upgrade/new PC. Used for gaming and non gaming. Gaming things like FSX/Xplane 11, BF1, other less resource intensive games.
Current spec (from overclockers)
Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz 30 °C
Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. Z68X-UD3P-B3 (Socket 1155) 30 °C
Graphics
T27B551 (1920x1080@60Hz)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (NVIDIA) 27 °C
Storage
232GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB ATA Device (SSD) 25 °C
465GB Western Digital WDC WD5000AAKX-001CA0 ATA Device (SATA) 26 °C
Optical Drives
ATAPI iHAS122 ATA Device
Audio
High Definition Audio Device
Any advice appreciated, particularly around whether a simple upgrade would suffice or isn't worth it. Not a PC tech, so any advice to overclock would need a link to simple instructions please!
Thanks
