Hey guys, let me get straight to the point. Im upgrading directly from a core 2 duo 3.0 ghz which ive been using for ages, but now that its dead i want to upgrade to haswell. I dont have alot of money so im trying to do spend as little as i can and get maximum benefits and chances to keep upgrading in the future. Ill be using my old pc case, graphics card(9800gt), and six hard drives ive added over the years(forgot the details on those sorry). So here is what i have so far. I just want some advice on whether im doing ok so far. Ive researched a bit and this is what i want my pc to have :
Processor:Intel® Core™ i5-4670K Processor Price=$242
Motherboard:GIGABYTE Z87X-UD5H Price=$229
Ramm:Kingston/corsair 8gb
Ok so these are the three things im going to get. Now the questions are:
1) Is it better to use my 9800gt or the processor graphics.
2) Since i have an old standard case i dont think ill be overclocking that much(or at all atm) and it gets pretty hot where i am. Its summer so you ll see temps going up at 26-38 C. I read that liquid cooling is ineffective in warmer climates because it just pumps warm water all over. Is that true?
I know it might seem like im getting expensive parts that i may or may not overclock but i want to be able to use this for the next 6 years which i did with my older build and upgrade things ram, graphics etc as i go on.
