For years I have been replacing components in my PC as they began malfunctioning from use, so now I am down to the CPU/MB/RAM as the remaining pieces of my once-proud system which I put together back in 2007. This is my current PC's configuration.
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz (OC'ed to 3.0Ghz)
Gigabyte GA-G41M-ES2L (rev 1.0)
4GB PC6400 RAM
XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 CPU Cooler
EVGA Geforce GTX 560 Ti Superclocked
1TB WD Blue HDD, SATA III, 64MB Cache
Corsair TX750 PSU
Used to have a DVD reader, followed by an ext DVD writer, but those went out of commission (the latter on the brink) and I haven't felt a need for replacements with having ext HDDs and flash drive readily available.
My budget is looking to be about $400-$500, but I'm not looking for immediate parts now. Just within the next few months. What would you all recommend with that kind of budget? The CPU/MB/RAM are the most important.
