It's time to finally upgrade. I tried to just upgrade my GPU but it's not quite enough. Basically I'm building the system around my already purchased nvidia geforce gtx 980 (I think it's a basic reference 4GB) .... the $550 one.
Here's the rest I have in mind. What do you think?
Thinking about purchasing.....
