Which has never been more obvious since reading through all the 'suggest me a rig' threads here.
I think i'm taking first prize for outdated rig though, with outdated knowledge to match, eek
Basically I need a new PC:
- For some Photoshop/Lightroom work
- Office work
- General Browsing
- Occasional DVD watching
Here is what I have at the moment that I would like to carry over:
- 320gb SATA Boot drive
- 1Tb SATA Storage drive
- Keyboard
- Mouse
- 2x Iiyama 26" TFTs
- Case
- 650 Watt PSU
- 2x X1950XTs
Here is what I figure i'll need:
- New mobo
- New CPU
- SSD as a boot drive (possibly)
- Ram (4/6Gb)
I'd like to keep both of these graphics cards that I have for the reason that I have been using 3 displays for some time now and the second card has been useful for that - also giving me the option of a fourth display at a later date.
I really wouldnt want to have to go back to being limited to 2 displays if possible, So i guess I'd need a mobo with 2x PCI-E slots? is that right?
I literally have no idea what to choose for the items in the 'what i need' section - so i'm throwing myself upon your collective mercy, suggest for me anything in that category please
Budget wise: £350-400, posibly more if there was a good reason for it.
Thanks in advance,
Rich
