Got Some Money, i want a upgrade

[Thebman712]

So i have around 550$ (cad) to upgrade my pc,

 

My specs are

i7 4770

16gb 1600mhz ddr3 ram

2tb segate baracuda

dell mobo

460w psu

gtx 645

 

 

i would like a psu upgrade, a gpu upgrade, a possible ssd, and a few case fans. (getting a new case would be nice to, but i am fine if i have to mod in a few fans to my dell xps 8700)

 

silence is nice but as long as it is quiet ish i am good. i game on a single 1080p monitor and i want to play most games maxed and not have to upgrade for 2 years, while still having great 1080p high settings gaming

 

im not sure what to get but i was thinking a good 600w psu, a 280x or 290 and a ssd, with a few fans

 

thanks in advance

I think you should to Mobo, GPU, and then what ever you want to do with the rest

R9 290(X) and a better PSU - if that's even possible with 550 CAD? A new mobo might not help unless this Dell one is prone to failures or whatever.

i dont need a mobo, it does what i need, and if i got a mobo i would need a os and if i get a new os its a pain in the ass to set every thing back up

no it is perfectly fine for what i need

[Hidden Orange]

Hey, it is possible. Oh, and if you can stretch it by 25 CAD, you can get a SSD too.

Well, you could get a R9 280X or GTX 770 and grab some games with the extra cash. Another option is to wait, buy the games you want during the Steam sale and whatever else sales, then grab the R9 290(X), SSD, PSU, or whatever else you want.

 

yeah q4 2014 to q1 2015

It's the waiting game at this point and once the GTX 800's come along, people will start talking about the new Titan and GTX 900's. Do or die, man. Do or die waiting.
