I'm hoping to be able to take advantage of some Turkey Week pricing deals and get an upgrade to this old 5 year old potato that I am currently running. Unfortunately, I am out of touch with the DIY PC market and not sure what brands are good quality or which parts would be just right and not overkill.
What I need:
- I need a rig that will last at least 3 years and be capable of streaming MMO games on Twitch/Youtube at viewer-desired quality.
Already Have List:
- 250g SSD
- 250g SSD
- 2TB SSHD Hybrid
- 650w Power Supply (I am hoping that this will carry me, since I am trying to save money)
Need List:
- Motherboard
- CPU
- Graphics Card
- RAM
Budget:
- $600-800 (Closer to $600 is strongly desired, but hoping sales will offer better gear for pennies this week, so I widened the range a little)
- $900 is absolute cap, and I only want to spend between $800-900 if... *IF* ...the deal is on a part so good, I'd be insane to pass it up.
I actually hadn't planned to do this right now, but I'm afraid that if I don't, then it might be another year and I am just so limited to what I can do on an aging, buggy ABIT board, w/a Core2 Duo, 4g of RAM and a GTX 460.
