Good evening all,

That time of upgrading the rig and need some input please.

Current Rig below:

Intel Core i5-4670 3.40GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail

Samsung 250GB SSD 840 EVO SATA 6Gbs Basic - (MZ-7TE250BW) ( OS )
Also a 2nd 500gb Samsung SSD drive.

Corsair CS750M 750W Semi-Modular 80+ GOLD Certified Power Supply (CP-9020078-UK)

Gigabyte H87-HD3 Intel H87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard

Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (CML8GX3M2B1600C11)

Corsair Graphite Series 230T Compact Mid Tower Case (CC-9011036-WW)

Gigabyte Radeon RX VEGA 64 WindForce OC 8GB HBM2 PCI-Express Graphics Card

Im thinking new mobo/processor/ram and more storage as running out on current ones.

Thoughts on a post card please.

A bit vague but im so out of touch with hardware these days its unreal.

Thanks in advance!
Steve

Thanks for the responses.

Budget - upto £1200 maybe. Less is better as always!

Thanks for the reply EsaT.

Thinking of going down the I5 9600k route.

Wanting a gigabyte board with 2 x M.2 slots and this leads onto getting 2 x M.2 drives.

Going to go for 16gb minimum memory.

Just not entirely sure what is best bang for bucks with the above. Either way will be pulling the trigger shortly.
