After checking lots of options and trying to find SLI board for my 8320 here I have finally decide to go with full upgrade so please suggest Motherboard/Processor/RAM combo.
My main usage is light gaming (when ever i get time) and lots of browsing which my Job requires (chome around 10~15 tabs always open and another couple of browsers with total 10~12 tabs always open). I know having more RAM is recommended but right now the price of these sticks are high so I will go with 8 gb single stick and eventually upgrade to 32gb when prices comes down in few months.
I won't overclock but might SLI gtx 1070 so is it worth spending more money on 370 chipset or should I stick with B350 and wait for AMD cards and Crossfire
or maybe go with 1080 if budget allows when I think of upgrading.
The Processor I have in mind is Ryzen 5 1500X I guess its a good upgrade over my FX 8320 but will leave you guys to decide if I should spend few more and get 1600
P.S. I have 4 Harddisks and thinking to get an SSD for installing OS so 6 Sata ports are needed
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: Games like Farcry, GTA, and FPS like Battlefield and COD and lots of browsing
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
