New Rig Or Upgrade?

[dunoleh]

Hi Bro,

currently using a old rig of about 3 years.

1.) 750 @ 267GHz
2.) 6Gb Ram
3.) SSD 128GB
4.) 1TB HDD
5.) HD 6850

Only use for watching video, dota2 and most importantly i need fast browsing of browser. Can help up? Will like to make an upgrade. And recommendation?

If playing dota 2, internet and movies, then your current rig is still good. If die die wan change, den get a new GPU. power colour 7870 myst @$292. This should be more than enough.

If gaming wise still fine, just upgrade ram bah. Make sure ur OS is 64 bit though

upgrade ram as in upgrade to a new version ram? or just use back the same series of the 6GB i have?

By right, your ssd shld help improve in web browsing. But, another factor which will affect a lot would be your internet. Try go for wired connection and test other videos. If they run smoothly, then there is some optimisation problems with that video.

GPU is just for games nia.

BTW, how you get 6GB ram? Your mobo has triple-channel ram slots?

Add on. Make sure the rams are same series.

If u want, u can change to new rams also. Make sure ur mobo can support the freq of the rams n the max amt of ram it can support.

But rams are kinda expensive now. Lol.

im using fibre with direct connection. should not be the internet issue. yup. my mobo have 4 ram slots. getting confuse, do changing mobo and processor be a huge boost?

Changing your mobo and cpu or memory won't make your internet browsing speed increase...

Does your rig lag at all? Im on something similar without ssd, no lag at all.
