Hello, sorry if I posted in the wrong thread.

 

So I bought my computer for 250€ about 1 year ago, these are the specs:

Motherboard: MSI B75MA-P45

RAM: 12GB DDR3 (Unknown brand)

Graphics: 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (Point of View)

Disk: 931GB Seagate ST10000DX001-1CM162 (SSHD)

CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz

Case: Bitfenix Phenom Micro

 

So I am thinking about replacing some parts. First and foremost I want another Seagate SSHD disk so that I can run the two in raid-0. My current motherboard does not support it, I am therefore looking for a new motherboard that supports this, as well as supporting 2 graphics cards because I have another 760 laying around. My CPU is incredibly bad and therefore I am thinking about buying an intel core i7 but I don't know which one to get.

 

With all this info I am looking for some help, someone that can show me the best parts for my needs.

Thank you in advance

don't bother running them in raid 0, just get an ssd for the extra speed. you can try finding an i7 3770/Xeon equivalent to replace the i5.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Heatsink: Gelid Phantom Black GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual RAM: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB 3000Mhz mobo: Asus X570-P case: Fractal Design Define C PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 650W

unlike years ago, two graphics cards is much more expensive to do and is less necessary.

 

just get one good video card.

 

i'd generally recommend amd ryzen over intel, unless youre doing 144 hz gaming perhaps
