Hey guys,
I am very computer illiterate , need your advise on some potential additions to my gaming rig.
I use a HP Z640 workstation with the following specs:
2x HexaCore Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3, 1900 MHz (19 x 100)
GtX 1080
192GB Ram
Windows 10
925W PSU
Sound Blaster Z PCIe (Arriving this week)
My full spec report can be downloaded from here. (apologies for hosting it externally, I dont seem to be able to attach files internally)
Z640 quick spec sheet
1) I want to get a crucial SSD - will this fit into my rig?
2) How good is my processor when it comes to gaming?
Ideally I want to upgrade to an i5 or i7 which might be more suited to gaming. Can you recommend a good gaming one that has a good performance as well as being power efficient (wont get overheated) (budget: $400 USD)
3) I want to upgrade my motherboard too , to a gaming centric one. Any recommendation for one that will fit my criteria and slot into my rig ?
4) Is my PSU sufficient?
5) I want to add more CPU cooler fans just to keep heat optimum, which one should I get that will fit my rig ?
Thanks guys
