Hello Community,

This is my Current build and i have been running it for awhile now i think its time to upgrade what do you think?

P.s: im comfortable with the GPU's i currently have in sli they kick butt

Mainboard : Asus M4N98TD EVO
Chipset : nVidia nForce 780a SLI SPP
Processor : AMD Phenom II X4 965e @ 3700 MHz
Physical Memory : 16384 MB (4 x 4096 DDR3-SDRAM )
Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460x2
Hard Disk : Western Digital WD1600AAJS-00B4A0 ATA Device (160GB)
Hard Disk : Western Digital WD2500AAJS-75M0A0 ATA Device (250GB)

Leaving this up to you guys i want your opinions.


 
I don't know, can you answer yes to these questions:

Does your computer feel slow?
Can you afford new hardware?

If so, then you should upgrade. But, I wouldn't leave it up to the internet to decide if I should get a new computer or not, LOL!
 
Unless you have big bucks, (500+) you are not going to get much performance increase from your current setup.

I suggest the cheapest way to get more out of your computer is to get either a great air cooler (cm hyper 212 +) or go into water cooling h100i. Also, you could benefit from a ssd for your os/games. intel 330, crucial m4, sansung 840 is what i suggest and depending on how much you can get spend get 120-250gb
