My desktop works pretty fine. I was a hardcore gamer and completed so many games (ex: COD series upto MW2, MOH, STALKER Clear sky/COP/SOC, Fear, Far Cry, Batman, Singularity, Metro, NFS, DIRT and so on) in my current desktop but last year some terrible thing happened. I got a JOB. So I'm no longer a frequent gamer yet not retired. My GPU failed to run GTA 4 and splinter cell conviction and then it burned off due to excessive heat (I guess so). I didn't buy a GPU since then.
Now I want to upgrade my PC. I already have
22" Samsung display
4.1 Creative Speakers
and I need suggestions on
Processor --- I have "Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 @ 2.93GHz"
MotherBoard- I have "ASUSTeK Computer INC. P5KPL-AM/PS (Socket 775)"
GPU----- I have "MSI N9400GT 1GB"
RAM -- 2GB
Also suggest a Cabinet with good cooling capability and a good PSU...
Total budget 25k...
