Need some help upgrading!
My story's a weird one, but i'll keep it short. I know little in the Build-my-own-rig thing.
Right now, i feel like my comp's quite unbalanced. I'd like some advice for leveling everything.


Specs :

GPU : Sapphire HD 7950 3 GB GDDR5

Processor : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz (4CPUs) ~3.1GHz

RAM : 2 X 2GB Module - DDR3 1333MHz Kingston ValueRAM

Motherboard : Intel Corporation DH67GD AAG10206-206

Hard Drive : Seagate Barracuda ST31000524AS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5"

I believe i need a serious upgrade in my memory. Any possible advice on that?
I'm fine with graphics by what i can see.
Processor i'm unsure of... Motherboard too!

I might get some SSDs to run my games. Any good ones out there?


Thanks for any advice!
ok so i set up some new stuff for you here http://************.com/p/1LJdb

here is break down of what and why...

CPU: that i5 is slightly outdated. you can still get a good Intel cpu without upgrading to i7 so i chose the 4670k ... great for gaming. i assume thats what you fancy.

RAM: you just need 8 gigs for your setup period. its doesn't really matter what brand but i'm a fan of kingston. i threw in 1600 mhz 8 gigs dual channel.

MOBO: intel corporation...lol. the one i threw in should do the trick. pretty decently priced and very featured.

~ your storage unit is fine and SSD's are really just extra cash..

Definitely get at least 8GB of 1600 MHz RAM.
A CPU upgrade is optional, but highly recommended.
Thanks @3kc @Aborted for the information! I'll be sure to swing to the gaming shop near me and get those upgrades!
(Yes, such stores exists!)
