Ok So i'm gonna start Making youtube Videos But The problem is My pc isn't the fastest Around So i thought Maybe you guys can help Games: Minecraft, Black Ops 2, Far Cry 3, Assasins Creed 3, And So on Specs: CPU: Amd FX-4100 Bulldozer GPU: XFX Radeon HD6870 MOBO: MSI 760gm-p23 (Yeah i know this thing is really shit) HDD: 500Gb (Upgrade Possible If really necessary) Power: 500 Watt (I dont know the brand)
I'd say CPU and motherboard. Also, pop the side of your case off and taker a picture of the power supply
I'm not sure what country you're in, so you're going to have to find a website to buy these from. Also, seeing as you didn't supply a budget, here's probably the most standard gaming / general use build. [B]Intel CPU Core i5 3570K MSI Z77A-G41 Motherboard [/B](Or any Z77 socket 1155 motherboard) [B]Corsair GS700[/B] (You could probably go with a lower Wattage, but the price difference would small. If you do get a lower one, just stick to a trusted brand) [B]8GB (2x4GB) Corsair DDR3 Vengeance[/B] I think an upgrade with your current hardware (other than the HDD), wouldn't be smart.
Thanks For the Quick Replies Guys, Gman, You're Saying that i should Buy a whole new computer? Edit: So that's gonna Be €405.75, I can settle For that But Do i have to buy anything else Then this, I feel like My GPU Isn't great either

I meant everything excluding the case, the GPU, and the HDD. If you want a new GPU, buy the [B]2GB EVGA GTX 670 [/B](Doesn't have to be EVGA, they're just my personal favorite)

Got the same Motherboard, it isn't bad but if you want more features you can always upgrade. I'd say get at least a 750 Watt power Supply (I know it seems like a lot but it helps to make sure you get the most out of your PC for longer). Get a new GFX card: I'm thinking the Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition... Maybe. A CPU For price I recommend an AMD FX-6300 - 3.5Ghz (You cant have Intel CPU's on that Motherboard) For a Hard Drive just get a 1TB hard-drive, they're cheaper these days now. Other than that, make sure you get proper cooling as well.

If you are going to be doing video rendering try to get more than just a quad core processor.
What would be Better Jump to Intel, Or stay With AMD?

[QUOTE='[EG] Pepper;38763226']Intel. A silly little sandy i3 kicks the shit out of most AMD bulldozer chips[/QUOTE] But im Talking about the new Piledriver Chips, Are they any good?
They're a step in the right direction, but Intels offerings still blow them out of the water.
