Hello everyone... its my time to upgrade so I've been searching and researching for what to get.
I have it down to the following
Intel Core i7-870 Lynnfield 2.93GHz
Gigabyte Motherboard GA-P55A-UD4P
CORSAIR XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Triple Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TR3X6G1600C9
I use my PC mostly for gaming, I'd like to get at least a couple of years from this. This is actually the longest I've been without upgrading and it still seems pretty decent.
Right now I've got a...
Core Duo E6400 2.1 @ 2.8
Asus p5be Deluxe
4 MB Ram
Saphire ATI 5850
I'm def going to overclock to get the most out time out of my build.
Now I've been reading about Sandybridge and I know its going to hit in early Jan but I'm not sure the early version are for me so I'm leaning more towards the i7 build.
Anyone have any advice on my system good or bad or suggest a change let me know.
Thanks!
