New Computer

[Crazywink]

Hey guys, after about 3 years I've decided it's time to upgrade my computer.. So I figured I'd share what I'm currently thinking of doing and see if you guys have any suggestions.

Right now I'm thinking about this setup.. (I already have a GFX card, a PSU, and a hard drive)

Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard

CPU: AMD FX-8150 Zambezi 3.6GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Eight-Core Desktop Processor FD8150FRGUBOX

RAM: 2x CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10

I do have somewhat of a budget so.. Yeah..

Anyways, any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

No tips from me, but those look good, and that reminds me, I really must upgrade my ram. Currently sitting with just 8gb

Hmm thats a nice beast you plan to have there

Hehe, and I'm just fine here with my 4 gigs of ram

I would go for 4x4 GB Ram instead of 2x8 GB Ram, for the shared bandwidth since RAM is so cheap anyway, but that's just my opinion.
