    Summer 2010 upgrade

    Hi everyone,

    Well i guess i am approaching that time of year again lawl. :laugh:

    I was thinking of upgrading three important components in my PC. (my current specs on the drop down list).

    1- Processor

    2- Motherboard

    3- Graphics card

    I have also been thinking about RAM but nvm as RAM is easy business so i guess i will manage later. So about the processor i was thinking Core i7 or i5, the i7 920 i think the one that runs at 2.66 i saw here in Bahrain is dirt cheap it would be as if i am stealing lol but i am not sure if that is a good step up from my current e6750.

    Now for a new procs i am pretty sure i must get a new motherboard from what i understand these new procs are not compatible with my P35/45 chips.

    Lastly gfx, i got a 88GTXOEM and would like to upgrade it if summer 2010 is too early i can leave it for another time but some gfx cards in bahrain especially the HD4890 1GB is dead dead dead cheap 105 dinars thats a complete adn utter steal! lol so please advise guys and thanks.

    Do you mean "summer 09?"

    You surely can't be making a thread about next year?!?!

        Given how fast technology moves, about 11 months too early.

          I suggest you stick it out until those new Intel quantum chips arrive.

                Yeah, we really have no idea what's going to be out by then, so to plan this far ahead just doesn't make any sense.
