So this is what i have right now (bought it 3 years ago):
-FX-6300
-Asus GTX 660 Ti
-8GB DDR3-1333
-ASRock 970 Extreme3
-1 TB HDD
-Samsung SSD 250GB
-beQuiet 430W
-1080p monitor
I thought about waiting for Pascal, but since there are no exact dates for the release i decided to upgrade now and stick with it for the next 2-3 years.
My budget is around 800-900€. i don't care if i cant fully max out the latest games but medium-high 60fps would be desirable.
I kinda tried to make my own build but it's just a little overwhelming with all the gpus available.
My HDD and SDD are fine, so i would keep those and if possible i would keep the PSU too.
so here are my questions:
- i5 6500 or 6600(k)? i never overclocked and prefer my system quiet and cold, dont know if it could be worth somehow?
- im very unsure about the graphics card. the r9 nano looks really good from price/performance but is quite expensive too (500€), but the r9 390(x) for example is more power hungry so i maybe have to change my psu for that? the nvidia option would be the 970, it's cheap and powerful but i'm not sure if i would be happy with it for the next years considering it's more than 18 months old already and games get more demanding.
-16GB DDR4 RAM is almost mandatory i think
that's from my side
now i would like to hear your thoughts! 😀
