I have the following hardware:
CPU
AMD Phenom II X4 Denab 3.2 Ghz Black Edition
Mother board
Asus M4a79T Deluxe Motherboard
GPU
2x Sapphaire AMD 4870 1g Cards DDR5
Monitor
Acer GD235
PSU
Corsair TX 750 W PSU
Ram
4Gig OCZ Ram
Antec 900 Case
O/S
Windows 7 ultimate 64 Bit
The system runs well. The CPU is solid, I just want to squeeze a bit more performance out of it. Should I replace the motherboard and ram? I want to replace the video cards, but what should I replace them with, because I am limited to PCIe 2.0x16? Also with the case I have, what CPU cooler can I add that is better than the stock cooler. I use the sytem almost exclusively for gaming.
I know this is a lot of questions, but if someone can help I would appreciate it.
