Jadis Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) Hey guys. I'm looking to upgrade my computer (more like build a new computer, but taking parts from my current one). Can I get some feedback to what you guys think? Anywhere I can save money at the cost of a nonsignificant performance decrease or spend a little extra to get a significant performance boost: tips like that Most of the new stuff I just went with what had lots of good reviews on Newegg.com and is "up there" in terms of performance. NEW: Mobo: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157293 CPU: Intel Core i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I73770K http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116501 CPU Cooler: ZALMAN CNPS9500 AT 2 Ball CPU Cooling Fan/Heatsink http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-118-003&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&Pagesize=10&PurchaseMark=&SelectedRating=-1&VideoOnlyMark=False&VendorMark=&IsFeedbackTab=true&Page=3#scrollFullInfo SSD: Samsung 830 120 GB REUSING: Case:Antec 300 (+fans) PSU:Corsair TX650 Video Card: AMD Radeon HD5770 (I will upgrade this eventually, but it's pretty decent it seems) Memory: 2 x 4 GB, DDR3 1600 HDDs: 2 x 2TB 5400RPMs, 2 x 1.5TB 7200 rpms, 1 x 640GB 7200 RPM (hitachi, seagate, WD, respectively) Mouse/Keyboard/Speakers/Monitor/DVD-ROM/Other Am I forgetting anything?

The Prodigy Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Depending on what type of games you'll be playing, this is a nice build. I would try and get 4 more GB of RAM (Relatively Cheap). And then later a new Video Card, otherwise it looks nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
