Suggestions for Upgrades
Posted: 12 Oct 2011, 16:25
So I recieved a new (older) PC which Is from I think 2008 and nobody in my house needed it so I thought why not take it.
Here are the Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 2.66Ghz
Microstar MS-7502 Motherboard
2x2 GB DDR2 Crossair Ram @ 800Mhz Dualchannel (I upgraded from 2GB DDR2 @ 667Mhz)
8600 GS Graphics Card 256mb (I need suggestions for this one, because it is the worst part of my config by far -.-)
CD/HD-DVD/Blue-Ray Burner
8 USB Ports, Sound Card on Motherboard etc.
2 HDDs, One internal 500GB and an external 650GB which is connected via e-sata so it is pretty fast for an external
350W Power Supply
Questions:
1. Should I overclock my CPU to say 3.0 oder even further? Or not at all? (Not even sure If I can overclock it with this MoBo.
2. Is the Saphire Radeon HD 6670 a good choice? I want to stick around 80-120$ or say 100EUR while having a good graphics card which works with my 350W-Supply and still delivers a good amount of power.
3. Do you have other improvements?
