Dear Friends,
I seek your valuable guidance and help in upgrading my computer system.
I want to upgrade my present desktop system assembled with following Components & Peripherals:
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION:
Motherboard: Asus M4A88T-M
Processor; AMDc Phenom (tm) II X2 555
RAM: 4 GB XMS3 corsair + 2 GB Kingston = 6 GB DDR3
PSU: Cooler Master 800W Silent pro Gold
Graphic Card; GT520 Silent 2GB DDR3 nvidia GeForce.
ODD: LG super multi
HDD: 2X1TB SATA + 2X250GB SATA + 1X250GB SSD
Cabinet: iBall (black tall) of about 47cmX43cmX19cm size
O.S.: I have different operating systems on different HDDs (Win.-XP, Win-7, Win-10, Ubuntu/Linux.
Booting is through UBUNTU 18.04 LTS
Printer: HP LaserJet 1005 MFP
Monitor; Samsung syncMaster 2230
The machine is operative for last about 9-10 years and till almost now it was working very satisfactorily. But recently it has started giving troubles. So I want to upgrade it by keeping some of the Components & Peripherals as such. To make the system more robust I wish to opt for gaming grade key components like Motherboard, Processor, Graphic card and RAM. Usually non-gaming work is predominant but I wish to keep flexibility for gaming which may certainly be very useful for future video editing and rendering etc. also future software will be needed faster and gaming type machine to run them successfully and uninterrupted. Keeping this concept in mind:
I have short-listed key components optimally as under:
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B450-f
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
RAM: DDR4 (suggest the best quality & brand)
Graphic Card (suggest the best quality & brand)
I want to keep following items unchanged:
PSU: Cooler Master 800W Silent pro Gold
HDD: 2X1TB SATA + 2X250GB SATA + 1X250GB SSD
Printer: HP LaserJet 1005 MFP
Monitor; Samsung syncMaster 2230
Have I to replace following Items?
ODD: LG super multi (If YES, suggest the best quality & brand)
Cabinet: iBall (black tall) of about 47cmX43cmX19cm size (if YES, suggest the best quality & brand)
As I am technically a non-computer person, please reply with full detail and if possible with relavent pictures/photos. A pompt and very positive response from your end is eagerly awaited.
Regards to you all.
