Hi guys, So I have an old PC that’s about 9 years old that I’ve kept running for a while by upgrading certain parts. It runs as great as you’d expect from a MSI X58 Pro-E mobo with a i7 950 and GeForce GTX 560 😂😂(don’t judge me, I’m currently slowly getting parts for a new rig). The problem...

Ok so started looking up some parts but I do have a question, the RAM in my computer is fairly new. I bought it a bit before Xmas, would there be any mobo/CPU combo that would work with it or am I going to need to buy new RAM sticks as well? This is what I got now...
