Hi, I've been asked to upgrade a PC with a budget of about £200 for fairly standard non-gaming use. Budget: £200 (but I'm not sure if that much is necessary) Main uses of intended build: word/excel, streaming and media server Parts required: CPU, mobo and maybe RAM Previous build information (list details of parts): M4A78LT-M Phenom II X2 555 BE Corsair HX520 2x 2GB 1600Mhz RAM Storage requirements: n/a - have SSD + HD Will you be overclocking: no Any motherboard requirements (no. of USB, Xfire/SLI, fan headers): SATA 6GB/s, simply to get the best out of the SSD. Extra information about desired system: I'm torn between which cpu route to go down; FM2, AM1 or Pentium K For example: AMD A6-6400K AMD Athlon 5350, Kabini, Quad Core, AM1, 2.05GHz Any thoughts on this would be very welcome Tempted to pick up one of these so that it could sit on a desk as well Hyperion EV33B Cube MATX Case Thanks!
Anyone? I'm leaning towards the FM2 but it would be good for someone else to agree/disagree. It's not my money so I'm keen not to get this wrong. Thanks
