Upgrade options?
in Desktops ·
Hey,
I'm looking to upgrade my motherboard and CPU, so I could use some advice. Here's what I'm running right now:
ASUS M4N68T motherboard with AMD Athlon ii x4 640 processor
AMD Athlon ii x4 640 3.0 GHz
G.Skil Ripjaws series 4GB (2 sticks)
Kingston SSD 240 Gb and Hitachi 1000 GB sata
Gainward GeForce GTX 960
OCZ 550 w
I use this rig for both work and gaming. Ideally, I want to pick up a setup that I won't have to touch again for at least the next five years (specifically regarding the mobo, CPU, and RAM). I put together a potential build, but I wanted to check if there's a better way to go or if this is solid. I'd love to keep the total under $1833, though I might stretch it if the parts are truly top-notch.
