So its been a while, and tons of amazing games have been released for the PC. Many of these games need a beast of a system to play on the highest settings. So far my system has pulled through everything ive shot at it, but ive recently been thinking that i need to upgrade. I dont think i will upgrade my CPU for a very long time. My CPU seems that it will pull me through another good 3 or 4 years (my old P4 setup did anyway) so my main concern is my RAM, and PSU. I already decicded that i will wait for the nvidia 300 series, but i feel that my RAM is just to slow & low. Is 2gb at 667mhz enough nowadays. How much of a difference will i see if i go to 4gb (what speed should i choose. i have no price limit). Also is PSU enough. most GPU's need 600watts nowadays. mine is at 750. I was expecting to do SLI, but well there isnt enough power. My one last question is about cooling. how do u go about knowing what you need. My 8800GTX is around 58*C, and the fans i have are detailed below. I downloaded Rivatuner, and was wondering if i should raise the Fan speed or leave it alone. I dont want to make any changes unless absolutely neccesry. Would a 300 series be ok with my current setup? I also was considering to boost my CPU fans speed aswell, but i dont want to break anything. All my specs are in my sig.
Its that time again. Upgrade help needed
