Hi folks,
I have been talking to a work colleague today and he has said that because he doesn't really use his PC (more of a mac user), he is looking at splitting it and selling the parts separately
Now I currently have (both running at stock) an E8400 and an 8800GT with a 23" 1920x1080 monitor
He has got a 5850 in the machine and I was wondering (assuming the price he wants for it is ok) if it would be a worthwhile upgrade or whether I would be better looking at a 6*** series, a GTX4** or even just sticking with the 8800
If money (within reason) wasn't an issue I would have been considering an upgrade to an i5 along with graphics but this would mean a new motherboard, RAM, etc and with the new stuff out next year I would rather wait and see what happens to prices of current tech as I am not fussy about having the latest and best stuff, hence the i5 I suggested rather than i7
What would your advice be, would the 5850 do as something to tide me over for another 12 months or so?
