Hi all

I am thinking of getting a new pc but want to make sure that it’s enough of an upgrade to justify the cost

I currently have the following setup


Gigabyte Z97X-SLI
Devils Canyon Core i5 4690K Bundle
XFX Radeon R9 390 "DD Black Edition" 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
SuperFlower FX 550W '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply
Kingston HyperX Savage Red 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3

I have a budget of around £800, could you recommend a spec please or should I wait a while longer to upgrade?

thanks for reading :)

PSU is a bit on low side. Your minimum wattage comes to around 450watts, that with one HD so if you start adding USB or other devices your going to need more watts, maybe think about 650watts or so.

Sorry not sure if I was clear. That’s my current pc and I have £800 to get a new pc. I’m not sure if it’s worth me getting a new one at the moment or wait to upgrade. If it is worth getting a new pc what sort of spec should I be looking at? ( my son would get the old pc)

thanks again
