Abra's near future PC

Post by Abraham »

So yah, for a while now ive been planning to get a new pc, just never found the money to buy one, still dont have it, but I decided to gather up parts im planning to get to it.
Any idea/suggestions on it? Keep in mind that someparts im just gonna take from my old pc so the important shit that you need and are not on the list, I already own.

Your computer you have now isn't that bad, maybe a GPU + CPU upgrade will do the trick allready... and if needed, a extra/bigger HDD could be nice to have :)

The issue with my current build is that I didnt clean it up at all during the first 2years (I was noob and stupid) so it took a bit damage for running extreamly hot all the time, so now it overheats even when as clean as possible, the next thing is that GTX 670Ti would actually require a 550w powersupply and I got a 500w, thats not a major problem, it just causes my GPU to go insane everyonce in a while.
The last issue with current build is the case, I cant recall what case this is, but it's a bit too tight with the space which makes it hard to keep clean :c

Lmao didnt pay attention to that at all, thankgod this was only a scetch and not an actual order xD

Also will possibly change the powersupply to a 650w one, dont think I need 750w after a closer look

Depending on how long you are willing to wait, I would recommend waiting until the end of this year; this is when HBM should be released to the consumer market video cards and with this bandwidth you can push higher resolutions easier. If you can wait longer than that, Zen is rumored to drop Q2 or Q3 2017 for the consumer market.

Edit: oops just realized that this was posted in Mar, thought it said May.

Current favorite quote: I.M.B
"I was poison, heart full of canines, head full of voices
Whole life trying to quiet 'em down
Like a suicide king with a knife in his crown
Hounds at bay, but they just won't stay
True friendship in a tugboat way"
