Hi all,
my desktop of 8 years died over the weekend and i'm looking to replace it. My dead rig setup is:
INTEL CORE I5-4570 3.20 GHZ QUAD CORE PROCESSOR
ASROCK B85M-PRO4 SOCKET 1150
8GB Ram
1TB Western Digital HDD
240GB SSD
I have around 1k budget to purchase a rig that can perform intense multi tasking. i use it for:
1. multi tasking apps (alot of surfing; need alot of tabs open at once, MS applications, discord, slack, watching movies and listening to music etc)
2. dont really game now, so dont think i need a graphic card
3. will be reusing my old rig dvd writer, PSU, SSD & HDD so will save some cost there. Would be purchasing a new casing thou, my old own is rusty.
really appreciate your recommendations. TIA!
PS: Is fortran still the guy to approach for people to fix their rig?
