I recently took a 2-year old XPS 720 off my friend's hands and I'm looking to upgrade it.
The base specs are here http://www.pcworld.com/product/30130/dell_dell_xps_720.html?p=specs
(He had upgraded the HDD capacity to 500GB)
Here are the upgrades I was considering:
GeForce GTX 560 Ti
Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz
8GB (2x 4GB) DDR3 RAM
I was considering upgrading to Windows 7 from the Vista Home Premium included on it.
Should I upgrade the motherboard as well? Opinions overall?
