My main desktop rig is starting to randomly crash with increasing frequency. The CPU is the oldest thing in it, an i7 970 hex core that I suspect is failing. It was run hard early in its life, but the last 3-4 years it has been at stock.
So, I'm looking for upgrade advice that would keep me at the same or better performance without blowing the bank. And I've got to do it soon, or I'll be using the laptop for a while.
The other questions I've got are: DDR4 or keep with 3? I've got a fair amount of DDR3, so that would save me some money.
Thanks!
