Hi lol i have been on this forum before but im BUGGERD if i can remember my log in details -_-
Anyway!!
This is my spec at mo!
AMD phenom 2 x4 955 running at 3.8Ghz (with silent Knight 2 cooler)
GA-Ma790fxt-UD5P
Windows 7
4Gb of ddr3
700w stealthxstream PSU
Sapphire 5870
This is my question! I have around £70 to spend ($140 ish) but im a tiny bit stuck on what to buy as the upgrade!
Which one of these would you say is the better choice/see more bang for your buck/Quid
1: Corsair H50-1 cooler and try to Oc my processor to 4.0Ghz (failing that run it at cooler temps than i have now) i dont think this would effect gaming that much tho?.. but it sure would get me a bigger score in 3dmark06 lol.
2:4Gb of ram (to make it to 8 in total) I dont think there are ANY games at the mo where u need more than 4Gb of ram but i read somewhere windows 7 dosnt handle ram well or something?.. could have been a n00b making random commenst tho lol
3: Neither as i wouldnt see ANY diffrence from gaming..
Tbh im just more intrested in the Corsair H50-1 than the ram (unless it would make a BIG diffrence) So would going from 3.8 to 4.0 make ANY diffrence?
