Hey everyone, I have a PC I built in 2010 that I think I finally need to upgrade. I've upgraded the GPU in the past to a R9 280, but I need to upgrade that as well now.
I'm usually delving into my backlog so I haven't needed the best/latest components. I would just like to secure another few years at 1080p playing games like division 2, battlefront 2, and dying light 2 comfortably(I'm noticing a trend -_-).
My current specs.
Radeon R9 280
Phenom II X4 955
Asus M4A89TD Pro USB3
2x4gb G.Skill Ripjaws 240 pin DDR3 1600
Corsair TX 650 PSU
Cooler master Hyper 212
1 TB HDD
1 TB Samsung 860 EVO SSD
I'd like to replace the case, since the one I have is too bulky for my taste. I was going to try to keep the PSU, hard drives, and RAM as well(8GB might be worth upgrading though...). I'd like to keep it under $800 if possible.
My proposed new build
