    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    Right now my amazon cart is looking like this pic But the Motherboard has only 3.5 stars. I'm also assuming it will all fit fine in my Lian Li Case? Just making sure.

    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    Ok, I'm about to pull the trigger on this stuff. I have a few more things to iron out. I'd like to lean more toward a more expensive CPU and MOBO, since I don't expect to upgrade those for about 5 years. So, I'll up my budget a couple hundred dollars, and/or go with the 1070, but I want to make...

    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    I wouldn't mind having a GTX 1080 option and a GTX 1070 option in case that can't work out.

    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    Assuming I can get all this put together before 10/10 I'd guess right? Because the windows key attaches to the motherboard now, doesn't it? Ok, so let's add on fans and cooling unit for this, and I'll up the budget to match.

    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    So, that's a Win10 Upgrade? I'm assuming (hoping) that doesn't mean I would have to install Win7 first? I've already installed Win10 on my hard drive, but I can't find my old Win7 key to legitimize it. So I'm hoping I can just pay to get a Win10 key and register it without re-installation.

    Help me Upgrade my core+vid card for $1100

    That's a good start. Wouldn't I want 32 Gigs of Ram? But now is after that deadline right?

    Best card to upgrade to a triple monitor setup

    I won't ignore that anymore! My office just coincidentally had a sale on some of its old video cards yesterday, and people were buying them up and I wondered if I should grab a 670 or two while I could. Thanks for your help with that. That sounds smart. And I was about to say that I would...

    Best card to upgrade to a triple monitor setup

    UPDATE I have been offered a couple used GTX 670 cards. Can my mobo link those two together using SLI? He's asking 20 bucks each. I was wondering if this would at least work with my machine. My specs are in the OP, but here's the mobo CPU Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz, MBO Gigabyte...

    Best card to upgrade to a triple monitor setup

    I do have preferences to stay with nvidia if possible. I run some proprietary programs from work that tend to run better with nvidia cards.

    Best card to upgrade to a triple monitor setup

    I love this forum. Thanks for the input everyone. Sounds like I need to budget out enough to upgrade the motherboard, CPU, and vid card together. The good news is I have a clearer goal in mind. The bad news is I have to go back to my budget to see what to do. But I knew my goals might be naive...

    Best card to upgrade to a triple monitor setup

    I don't have the monitors yet. A long curved screen might even be awesome. However it may not work to for the second purpose I was considering here - multiplayer Xbox gaming for 3 people. My purposes for 3 screen setup: 3 screens used separately - 3 Xbox's - multiplayer with a console per...
