Need New Motherboard and Ram

7 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/need-new-motherboard-and-ram.174451/

Hi, I am planing to upgrade my motherboard and ram in this month. My present computer config is :

Processor : AMD Phenom II X4 945
Cabinet : Cooler master Elite 430 Black
SMPS : corsair gs600
GPU : Sapphire AMD/ATI HD 7770 1 GB GDDR5
CPU Cooler : Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

Kindly suggest me options for Motherboard and Ram. I want to install 8GBx1 (DDR3) Ram firstly and after few months I will install 1 more.

Also suggest me where I can sell my old computer parts in Bangalore.

Note : I will upgrade my CPU after 1 year, so I need a MB that support latest AMD processor also.

budget??

10 k (+ 1k)

Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 (7.2k) + Corsair vengance 1600 MHz 8 GB (4.2k)
total: 11.4k

Thanks harshilsharma63, can you please suggest any more mb option within 6k. Your suggested motherboard is good, but little out of budget. Also I am not going to overclock my system, but I need a future proof MB, so that while upgrading my CPU there will be no issue.

Get the Asus M5A97 R2.0 which is available around 6.2K.

don't compromise on this ... in the long run it will come handy.
