Upgrading my PC

Go to solution Solved by Najuno,

Yep I´d say as well get an SSD. Keep your HDD as storage drive but a SSD would be a huge upgrade in performance.

These would be nice upgrades for your system... for sure the 120 GB version are a bit cheaper the EVO840 120GB is 90 USD atm.

Hello,

First of all i am new around here, this is my first post on this forum and I am subscribed to the linus tech tips youtube channel.

Now here is my question.

I'd really like to upgrade my computer and I don't know what to add.

here is my specs:

Intel® Core i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz (4 CPUs)

Gigabyte B85M-D2V

Hynix 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz

NVIDIA GeForce MSI GTX 760 OC 2GB GDDR5

Seagate 1T Barracuda Sata3 7200RPM

 

I thought of upgrading the motherboard and the ram at first but then I saw the ssd torture video from linus and now i think the ssd is more important.

What do you think I should upgrade?

And could you send me some suggestions to products that i should buy? (but not from amazon they don't send to my home country).
