Ya esta pedido…unos 560 todo, el ssd lo intentare para mas adelante...como siempre gracias a todos, os comentare primeras impresiones claro esta....es una pasta pero teniendo en cuenta lo que he sacado por los 2 ordenadores y un movil (280 en total) creo que la actualizacion me ha salido bien....estoy hasta emocionado!!!

Me alegro muchísimo por tu compra, estoy seguro disfrutaras pero de lo lindo. Además la inversión que has puesto, quitando lo que has sacado, es estupenda teniendo en cuenta de que te has montado un equipo gamer fantástico.

Espero lo disfrutes, te aseguro notaras la diferencia un montón. Y lo del SSD, ten paciencia, por que seguro que si esperas a ahorrar un poco por menos de 100€ te harás con uno super majo y será otra de esas cosas que te aseguro se nota en el dia a dia.
Yo con mi SDD llevare como casi 2 años y me costo cerca de 180€, y no tiene el rendimiento de los nuevos Sata 3, pero aun a si va super bien.
No te das cuenta de ello hasta que vuelves a usar un pc con un disco mecánico y entonces ves la enorme diferencia en muchísimas cosas cotidianas: arrancar pc, reiniciar, poner en suspensión, copiar archivos, uso de aplicaciones algo pesadas, etc.
Eso si, los juegos no van a ir mas rápidos :ugly: pero pueden cargar mas rápido.

En fin, lo dicho…a disfrutarlo!!!

Si quieres pasarte a un SSD más adelante haz una partición para Sistema de 100GB e instala bajo AHCI, así tendrás más fácil volcar la imagen.

Pues si que van bien!!! Es una de las ventajas de comprar componentes de calidad. Ya que por este motivo me he desentendido de renovar fuente y caja, y he podido invertir solamente en el resto de componentes. Es cierto que vale la pena a veces gastarte un poco mas…
Gracias a todos!! Ahora a pegarle al vicio!!!
Inicialmente he instalado win7..alguien recomienda el 8 o esta muy verde?

Good morning!!

I am reviving this old post that you all helped me so much with for another upgrade evaluation, this time for a family member.

He currently has a gigabyte P35-DS3L (Rev. 2) motherboard with a C2D E6750 with socket 775. 2x1 GB DDR2 PC2-6400. The graphics card is an ATI HD5850 (you recommended this graphics card back in 2010!!).

Recently he told me that he was running low on RAM, so I looked around, but a pack of 2x2 DDR2 a bit faster costs 67 €, and I also recommended he get an SSD to speed up the OS access (currently XP).

He then asked me if it was worth upgrading the computer, and there I was caught off guard again. He even mentioned some computers from the MM. To which I refused outright, since he could reuse many components from his current system, and those who told me suggested an i5-4440S or i3-3240 and a Gforce 625 for 600-500 €.

The truth is that he is a guy who goes from office to world of tanks or similar, strategy games that make computers sweat, he also likes COD and BF

I see that if he upgraded to DDR3 memory, it would cost him half as much, but we would have to look into the processor and motherboard issue.

I looked at the components you recommended to me at the time and I am surprised that the prices have barely changed... even the processor is more expensive!! (166.91 € to 175 €).

Do you see a similar upgrade to my system as viable? We get a more basic motherboard and keep an i5-3570 and 2x4 DDR3 1600? The 5850 can hold up for at least another year or do you recommend a change?

Option 1 (Improve current system):

• SSD 75 € (reusable for future upgrades)
• HD 1 TB 50 € (reusable for future upgrades)
• DDR2 2x2 GB 67 € (not reusable)
  TOTAL: approximately 200 €

Option 2 (upgrade):

• SSD 75 € (reusable for future upgrades)
• HD 1 TB 50 € (reusable for future upgrades)
• PB let's say 50-75 € +/-
• Processor 150-175 € +/-
• DDR3 2x4 GB 69 €
  TOTAL: approximately 444 €

In both cases, the graphics card would be kept, and the investment is double.

As always, a thousand thanks for your advice.

Leave the SSD for later, it's the icing on a good team or a good boost for office work and tasks that don't require as much computing power but, if you want to play BF etc get an i5, better a Haswell 4570 with an H87 Pro4, then if you get tired of it in a few years it will be more likely to find a replacement for 1150 than for 1155. You will need a heatsink, a Hyper 212 EVO or even a Raijintek even cheaper will do, 2x4GB 1600MHz economical RAM and if it's not enough for a GPU stretch the 5850 until you can change, you will also notice it quite a lot.

[CRASHON]

Thank you sir,
For now it says that if you enable the SSD and stretch the graphics and move forward to the update….one thing, do you think the configuration you indicate is better than my current one?

[Obione]

No, absolutely nothing happens by getting an Ivy, especially if you get a motherboard like yours or a Z75 Pro3 to overclock the 400MHz of the turbo to a 3470. Let's say that each generation pulls like they have 150MHz extra and would have a little more performance with the OC via turbo that isn't in the Haswells; or you could save 10€ with a cheaper B75 Pro3. I say this mainly in case the motherboard blows up sometime in the future but don't get too worked up, it's not like we're talking about 1155 motherboards disappearing much sooner or big leaps in performance, it's all up in the air.

What I wouldn't do is go for the SSD, if you want to play something that's a hog the first thing is the graphics card.

[CRASHON]

Ahh ok ok, well I'll get the same motherboard and processor as you have, which I know will have luxury performance. I'm mainly interested in what you said about overclocking the 400 Mhz of the 3470...is it worth it? I don't have them overclocked, but it's true that this is with the stock cooler. Although I'll take advantage of the order and get one...how about the Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO?

The thing about the graphics card is that it bothers me, since spending 200 € and having to change it in 2 years...for now he's happy with World of Tanks so let's wait...I'll try the latest COD or BF with acceptable settings and then see...

Once again, thank you very much Obione for your comments.

[CRASHON]

By the way… I've taken a look at your signature and I would be interested in changing the speakers I have (some Creative 5.1 from the year Maria Cristina), and seeing how the KRK RP6 G2 ones you have are… what do you think of them, do you have them connected to the PC directly?
