Hi everyone,
My current rig is in my signature. I am looking to upgrade but unsure of where to go with it. I think I can use the CPU on the AM2+ boards with my DDR2 RAM but unsure. I am planning on getting a new case in the next week or so then getting a new PSU the following week. I want to game and do some video editing in the near future. I am pretty much wondering what would be the best way to go since I am going to be uprgrading slowly. I can't afford to buy everything at once but would like to still use my PC while upgrading the components and making sure that they all work. I have been looking into this board http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128387 which seems to support my current CPU. I would like to get a quad core for it as the money comes in but would also like some different options as far as the board goes because I might not have the funds to get a graphics card right away. A single graphics card setup would be ok but I want to try out a multiple card setup as well. I am open to opinions/recommendations.
Thanks in advance for everyone's advice
