Hi, I got my PC in 2011. I have changed GPU twice but the PC is now still slower and not so quiet anymore.
I am thinking of moving to smaller and quiter case.
My new PC:
(old parts)
Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155
Asus P8P67 Intel P67 (Socket 1155)
Corsair Vengeance Pro Blue 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory
Cooler Master GeminII M4 Low Profile CPU Cooler
Intel SSD 128 GB + 2x WD 1TB each + 320GB hitatchi backup HDD
(new parts)
Corsair Carbide 400Q Silent Midi Tower
Zotac GeForce GTX 970 Gaming Edition 4096MB GDDR5
Corsair 650W 0 RPM PSU
4x 120mm fans (9.5db each, cant remember the name now)
My goal is to have it silent or low noise as I am watching movies in bed before I fall asleep. I am also moving to smaller case, as small as possible but with old Mobo as I can't afford full upgrade for now.
Would you recommend any changes to new parts ?
