Noticed the stickies but honestly I'm not sure how my current pc ranks so I don't know where to be looking,
Current set up
Case - Antec 900
Proc - Core2 E6700
Mboard - EVGA 680i
GFX - HD4800
Mem - 4gb DDR2 dual channel OCZ
HD - 320GB Seagate Barracuda IDE 16MB + 1tb external for storeage
Op - Win7 x64
Good psu and all set for monitors etc...
Evening guys. Can you take a look at my current set up and tell me where I should be upgarding. PC is used 70/30 work/gaming. Work wise I use postgres for active database. Gaming wise BF2BC would be my aim. All bought new in 2007 and gfx upgraded around June last year.
I'm thinking GFX card is still ok for gaming but if you think i would benefit from a new one let me know. Really not sure out of hd, ram, mobo and proc if/what needs upgrading. Looking for a nice balance of cost vs performance so I'll be set for next 18+ months.
Shooting for around £450ish max spend. If you can either tell me what needs swapping or suggest what to swap it with I would be muchos grateful.
** ninja bonus** Pc kicks out a fair bit of heat and warms the room after a while so wouldn't mind extra cooling if costs permit.
