Hey, im desperate to upgrade given atm im using a 4200 card after my old one died...
I have roughly £1000 to spend, can go more, less would be nice.
Also want a new monitor 22 or 24.(seperate budget of 250 ish)
Heres what ive decided so far:
Lian Li PC-A71 case.(Dont like akasa any other recommendations? want a door.)
E8500(what custom cooler?)
4gig or 8gig DDR2(is 8 gig worth it? what make is best?)
Seagate 1TB sata
Rampage Formula Mobo, x48.
Suitable PSU
The real problem i have is what graphics card??
Ive researched loads ATI are most popular, but what do i get..
4870
48701gig
4870X2
Im not a high res freak or anything ,i want value for money, BUT i dont upgrade regulary i keep my PCs for 2 to 3 years, and i will build myself and probably overclock. But i consider for example an x48 worth is given its only £30 or so more than a older chipset.
Im just really stuck on what route to go...crossfire mobo 4870 now and add another later when cheaper... or get a 4870X2 now, tho i do NOT like the low warranties..
