Guys, I am looking to upgrade my PC and would like your opinion on the upgrade path. My present PC specs as follows:
Intel G2030
LGA1155 itx mobo
8gb ram
ATI 7750 1gb low profile card
128gb SSD
My primary concern is to create a more viable multimedia system with light video encoding and moderate gaming. My monitor can only do 1080p so I don't see my graphics card as a bottleneck now.
Hence I'm deciding between two options:
1. Upgrade to i5 3330
2. Buy a new 1150 itx mobo with a newer low end i5
What are your thoughts about this? Which gives me more options when I want to upgrade my graphics card later?
