I have an old Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 setup with i7 920 (as seen in my specs) which has caused me some trouble for some time, and I think it might be time to replace them. What I'm looking for is a computer that would last for at least as long as this one has (or would, if it wasn't for it breaking down), i.e. 3 years.
I haven't paid much attention to the development of hardware the past 10 years, so I have basically not a single clue about what's "usable" and what's not, etc. The primary objective of the computer will be general internet stuff such as web and mail, but I also tinker with video editing, so the HW must be able to deal with that. And it should be able to play games. A broad description, I know :) But what I'm looking for is mid end-high end.
Apart from the mobo and CPU, I'd like to keep all my components. I might buy another set of RAM modules if necessary.
Thanks!
