Hi everyone, I'm trying to upgrade my computer but wanted some advice. I've listed what I have and what I'm considering upgrading to. I currently do a lot of Handbrake encoding as well as Adobe Photoshop use. I also have dual 24" monitors as well which are important in my line of work. Do you have any suggestions?
Current System
Intel i7 950 @ 3.06
12GB memory PC3 12800
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R rev 2 motherboard
480GB Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD
2TB Storage Disk
Sapphire Dual-X Radeon R7 265 Video Card
Corsair Obsidian 650D case
Corsair H100 CPU Cooler
Corsair AX850 Power Supply
Proposed System
Intel i7 4790K
16GB of memory, although not sure of speed (2 x 8GB sticks)
Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD5H motherboard
Same 480GB Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD
Same 2TB Storage
Same Sapphire Dual-X Radeon R7 265 Video Card
Same Corsair Obsidian 650D case
Corsair H100i CPU Cooler
Same Corsair AX850 Power Supply
Thoughts?
