Need upgrading tips!

[KrimsonFox]

I am in need of upgrading my motherboard and case. I need to upgrade my motherboard since for some reasson it limits the velocity of the RAM. And about the case I need something that looks cool, is sturdy and able to transport to LANs.

Budget: 200-250 euros

Specs:

CPU: Intel i5 3450 3.1 GHZ

GPU: Sapphire  R9 280X Vapor-X

RAM: Hyper-x Beast 8gb 1866 CL9

Motherboard: Asus P8H77-M PRO/CM6870

PSU: Thermaltake 750W

 

Thanks.

(velocity...?)

 

The best solution here is to sell your motherboard/case/CPU and get a mini-ITX solution, Skylake or Haswell. Depends on budget more than anything.

For a case I would go with the bitfenix prodigy m or corsair c70
