Planned system-upgrade
My new, planned system-upgrade, will consist of these items:
CPU: Intel i7-3820 (4 cores is enough for what I do)
Motherboard:Asus Rampage IV Extreme
- ASUS RAMPAGE IV EXTREME
Memory: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600MHz 24GB CL9
The exact product may change but I will definitively get these from Corsair as they have been great for me in the past and I’ve heard some good stuff about their Vengeance-series. 24GB should keep me aloof for what I do (I’ve started doing some RAM-intense work now so the amount is certainly justified).
That’s it for now, I might add something more – most likely a new generation graphics card: either the already released AMD solution or the upcoming Kepler from Nvidia. We’ll see.
