So here is my current set up
Antec 900
Asus P5Q-E Mobo
E8500 CPU
Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
Sunbean 6 Switch Fan Controller
OCZ 700 PSU
22" Viewsonic VX2235
Asus 4870 Video Card The one they don't sell anymore I bought for 279.00 here is a link to a open item from newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16814121258R
GSkill 4 GB 8500
WD 640 HD
Samsung 20X DVD
Sabrent 65 in 1 Card Reader
Creative Labs Audo 70SB
Logitech G15 Keyboard
Saitek PK02 Keyboard
OCZ Mouse
Logitech MX518 Mouse
Logitech Z560 THX 4.1 Speaker (probably 4 years old)
MS Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit
MS Windows Office Home and Student
Now here is what I changed;
Monitor to a samsung 22"
Speakers to logitech Z 2300
Video Card to 4870 X 2 waiting to get it
Artic cooling accelero xtreme waiting to get it
Removed the sunbean fan controller didn't need it blue light's were bright
Added cable management. I'll take and post pics. when I get back
Added some sound deadener
Here is what I would like to upgrade and want to know if I'm wasting my time;
Memory add 4 more gb at $85.00 plus tax and frt.
Change CPU to a Q9550 at $169.00 plus tax.
And to off set the processor I have an E8500 I can sell and possible the 4870 GPU. I think the E8500 and 4870 are worth about 100-110 each.
Thanks for the comments
