Hi,
i'm thinking of upgrading my pc (mostly used for gaming) from the following setup:
CPU: Intel I3-530 2.93 GHz (OC at 4.18)
Cooler: 212 evo
MB: Gigabyte H55M – s2h
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 760 2GB OC
RAM: 2x2GB ADATA DDR3
PSU: CM GX – 550W
CASE: CM Elite 430 Black
HDD: 60GB ssd + 1 tb black
to:
CPU: Intel I5 4690K
Cooler: 212 evo
MB: Asrock z97x FK
GPU: Sapphire r9 290x 4gb
RAM: Kingston beast 2x4 @ 2400
PSU: CM GX - 550 W
CASE + HDD remain the same as well
Any thoughts and reccomendations on that? Will the PSU be sufficient to run all those @ stock values for now?
Do you think that I can upgrade only the card (since i sold the 760, gave me headaches) and keep the rest of the machine up for a little while longer?
I dont play any heavy games at the moment.
Thx in advance!
