My current system configuration is :
AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955 Processor
ASUSTeK Computer INC. M4N68T-M-LE-V2
Crosshair 6GB DDR3 1333MHZ
Bijli 2 Atx cabinet
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti
SyncMaster 2233SW
Samsung DVD writer
WD 320GB 7200RPM
Crossair 650W
I am thinking of upgrading to
AMD FX-8150 Black Edition, 3.60Ghz, 8MB Cache
Asus SABERTOOTH 990FX
Western Digital 2000GB (2TB)
Corsair 16GB (4*4GB)
Pioneer Blu-Ray Combo Drive
Do you think this configuration will be a better choice. Will it be able to play games on maximum resolution and what should I add to this conguration. ??? I want to if I can upgrade to AMD X8 or i core 7 for better performance and which one will be better motherboard....
This will be a much better configuration obviously but I will recommend spending on Blu Ray + Hard Drive + GPU rather than a new i7 as basically a GPU is all you need for better gaming. Get a HD 7850 or if you have no limit, speend on a HD 7970.
get a new motherboard, cooler and a bigger HDD obviously.
You could upgrade your motherboard, go for one with SLI support and buy another 560 Ti. You will be able to run almost every game at 1080p with high settings without a problem.
it will never be. The proccy you have got is a gem.
mobo chipset was clearly bad choice, so yes change mobo, buy 8GB x 2 = 16GB RAM or 4x4GB as you wish
choice list

Upgrading to 16GB ram may limit the Oc capability and 16GB ram won't give a single fps boost - 6GB ram is enough though Op may upgrade to 8GB if needs.
Getting a good cpu cooler and mobo is must have to OC the cpu - so get ASUS M5A97 @ 6.9k and Cm Hyper 212 Evo @ 2.2k and spend the rest of the money t get a GTX 670 DCII - you have a good budget for system upgrade ( around ~43k ) and you want lag free gaming - so why not get the best possible gpu.
You can also consider Gigabyte GA 970 UD3 .
i c, he has mentioned only games. so yes above 8 GB RAM will not help
and I could not determine max RAM 955 supports, I think it is limited to 16 GB
Your configuration is pretty nice, I heard a lot about AMD X8 but personally never used but yes Intel i7 is undoubtedly way to go for high resolution gaming with high refresh rate.
Well thanks I am planning to purchase Asus SABERTOOTH 990FX with 8GBof memory and one more 560Ti graphics card...
good call but spend on a decent cabby as well not iBall bijli
yep, tx650 is not enough for a OCed PII 955BE + 2x GTX 560 Ti in SLi
I changed my mind after reading lot of forums
The next upgrade would be
Processor : icore5 3570K
Motherboard: As Rock Z77 Extreme4
16GB DDR3 2133MHZ
Western Digital 2 TB Hard drive
Card and power supply will be the same
What do you think about dis configuration??
perform better than the previous config but 8GB ram is enough for a gaming rig ...
As TG said, just get an m5a97 and a 670. You'll not complain for another 3-4 years.
