I have been trying to figure out what kind of components to pick from yesterday, but despite of being doing lots of reading and think about upgrade my box for a year, I even not sure what kind of budget should I stick to.
I think I need a whole new box, the PSU do the jobs but have a loud starting noise for a couple of years. And all the hard drives I got is IDEs. I will keep monitor and mice and KB. I have no problem with the case but figure out I can sell the whole box in trade me to and hopefully will save a couple of hundreds.
This box is for all around. Initially I think around $700 should be enough, but after some research I think something like $800 is more reasonable for my expectation.
Now what on my mind is Inter 8XXX should be ideal, but also could be 7XXX due to my budget and I will definitly go with a fanless 8600 video card,I don't have lots of time for games nowadays but think I will play Fallout3(RGB) after it out.
I live close to C1 and think I will go them for the upgrade.
Many thanks in advance.
