Hello,
I recently consulted here about upgrading my computer. I was advised to wait for the release of the 13th generation Intel processors so that the prices of previous generations would drop, and so I did.
Generation 13 is out, so I am now consulting on upgrading my computer in an immediate time frame:
I have an aging desktop computer, most of which was bought 9 years ago. Used for gaming and as a main computer. It does not easily carry games of recent years at medium+ graphics settings.
Over time I upgraded the video card to GTX 1070ti and the main hard disk from HDD to SSD.
I understand that the next step is to replace the processor+motherboard+RAM and I would appreciate the recommendations. It is important to me that the new specifications will give me peace of mind for about 5 years in terms of upgrades, with the exception of replacing a video card.
I prefer not to replace parts other than what I have listed, but if (for example) the power supply is not sufficient for the new specification, it is clear to me that this is what is needed.
My current specs:
Processor:
Intel Core i5 3570K @ 3.40GHz vy Bridge 22nm Technology
RAM:
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard:
ASRock Z77 Pro4 (CPUSocket)
Graphics Card:
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti (MSI)
Power Supply:
Seasonic S12II 520W
CPU Cooler:
Scythe Mugen III REVB
case:
Antec P280
storage:
Crucial MX500 1TB
screen:
AORUS FI27Q
format:
1. What is the maximum budget? Is an exception possible if necessary?
6,000. I don’t have a good estimate of what and how much should be upgraded. Flexible down and up as needed.
2. What are the uses of the computer (games, graphic editing, office work, HD content for example), is there a specific example of a game or software?
Gaming. Also serves as a main computer for office use of making presentations, reading PDF.
games – Doom Eternal, Overwatch, Witcher 3, Sleeping Dogs, Prodeus
3. Is the peripheral equipment necessary in addition to the computer (for example: keyboard, mouse, speakers and screen)?
There is no need.
4. Is there a basic component that does not need to be included in the specification? (For Dodge drive SSD which already exists and can be added to the assembly)
prefer to stay with the case, Cooling And my existing power supplier if possible.
Video card, drive SSD – Staying.
5. How important is quiet computer operation?
It is important that when idling it does not make noise like a tractor.
6. Is there a limitation or preference for the physical size of the computer and its weight, lights, etc.?
No size limit, no lights needed.
7. Is it necessary to include an operating system/office (if so it is advisable to specify a preferred version) and/or to assemble a computer in the store?
There is no need for an activation code or Office.
Prefer replacement of the components in the store.
8. Is there a preference to purchase the computer from a specific store? If not, you can also specify a residential area.
There is no preference for a specific store. The center area.
9. When is the planned purchase of the computer (it is highly desirable to ask for a specific date shortly after the purchase)?
immediate
10. Are there any special requests regarding ports and connections (for Dodge USB Type-C or FireWire) or overclocking?
I don’t understand overclocking (so no), ports USB C would be a nice gimmick but absolutely not required.
11. Is there any existing peripheral equipment that will be connected? If so, which one? (docking station if computers portable one screen or another)
There is an AORUS FI27Q screen, a keyboard, a mouse, speakers…
Thanks!
