My build right now. I built it around 3 years ago and upgraded some tiny things here and there
Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: This week (Before black friday and cyber monday ends)
Budget Range: $400-500 CAD. After rebates and shipping and everything.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Programming, Netflix, Surfing the web
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: GPU, HDD, Case, and anything else at your discretion. But those 3 are what is most important to fit into my budget
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon.ca, Newegg.ca, Ncix.ca, Tigerdirect.ca
Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Parts Preferences: Anything
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I live in Canada so a GTX 1060 in CAD is quite a bit more when converted from USD, just something to keep in mind. A pretty cool case would be a plus, but I probably can't go for that with this budget haha. The games I'm mostly playing would be: League of Legends, Overwatch, CS:GO, and I would like to have the option to have new games on good settings if possible.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Black friday sales and such and also my graphics card and hard drive broke.
CPU: i5 3570k - Don't know if this needs to be upgraded, probably not right? It's not broken or anything
GPU: AMD RadeonHD 6870 - Broken
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-Z77M-D3H-MVP - Just like the CPU, this ain't broken but I'm not sure if this needs to be updated
RAM: 8 gigs of some cheap ram I bought from some store long ago, works fine (I think) but not sure if it needs to be upgraded as well
HDD: Broken, I'm thinking of switching to maybe SSD's?
Case: Broken, or should I say run down. I can still use it but it looks like crap since it's so old. A cool (if possible) case with nice features would be nice
PSU: Thermaltake TR2 TR-500 500W - Everything other than my card and harddrive works and power is being distributed properly so I think it's safe to assume the PSU is working fine.
