I'm looking to upgrade my computer system since my computer kept crashing to the Blue screen. Then after a little while later it will boot up to the windows logo then goes black. No graphics whatsoever. It wont even show the screen of F12 I think for the boot log? Cant remember honestly. So yeah time for the upgrades.
The computer is a HP Envy 700-414. 4th Gen Intel core i5-4570 processor. With a sad integrated HD graphics card 4600. 12gb DDR3 system memory.
The power supply went out about a year ago after the other problems above here. I'm looking to upgrade the power supply and put in a new graphics card. The things I'm unsure of is will the new upgrades work with everything, will it fit in my box and what other stuff should I need to upgrade. I've thought about buying a bigger box with better air flow since the pc gets hot and stays hot for awhile. Even though it has vents, it still dosen't help.
So what should I consider on the graphics card? I like something that can get good quality to stream on. That's a debatable question on choice.
I was thinking 800w power supply but do I need to go bigger?
Also does Gen's matter on the processor?
Also if anyone knows my earlier problems and knows what happened then I'd like to know.
I appreciate the help!
