Price check my PC?
Okay, so i am looking to sell my PC off and rebuild one! here is a list of parts ect ect. just let me know how much you think my PC could be sold for (USD) and what a better build for the money i would get from the old PC! Thanks.


CPU AMD FX 8350
CPU Hyper 212 EVO Universal CPU Cooler
MB Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
RAM 8GB DDR3 1600MHZ
HD 250 Samsung SSD
Case coolmaster case idk name tbh
Video card Geforce 760 2GB
600-700$ it's actually a pretty decent PC .
$600-$700? that is pretty good! now to find someone to buy it, i wanna sell it, add some money i got from my tax's and buy intel. Thoughts on a good build for about $1000-$1500?

A 4770k with a GTX 770 or 780 would be great for the price.

I'm sorry I mention you all the time, but you're the only one I think can truly give a detailed and legit answer.

It's not a massive performance increase, only about 10-15% based on pure cumulative benchmarks, but those don't paint the whole picture. Intels perform a lot better in Single-thread scenarios, which would make quite a big boost on the overall speed of your rig. In addition, they're better for encoding, use a lot less power, and produce less heat.

i see what you mean, over all its a step up rather then just a huge step up on performance, saves money and gives me a better setup, i plan on going to micro center soon to buy some stuff, ill make sure to look into the i7 and 770 or 780, what motherboard would you suggest? most likely $100-$200 for that. i think other then that i can cover the rest no problem at all!

I'd suggest a Saberooth Z87, fantastic board.

Remember you can always sell your old parts to make up cash.
I still have a warranty on Video card, CPU and MB, so i plan on returning them and putting abit more cash into the pot to get what i really want! ill have to look the sabertooth z87 up for sure, i have a Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 in fact this is one of the motherboards you suggested to me in the first place and tbh i love the style and the way it works! so i plan on sticking to Sabertooth boards now. lol
also what are you thoughts on getting lesser cards but SLI them rather then getting a 780 or 770? would it give me higher FPS on games?
hmmm not sure how to take that appraised xD i just wanna build great intel/geforce PC that can run newer games on Ultra with 50+ FPS xD that's the dream my friends!
