Hey guys, so i have a computer that i'm planning on upgrading so i can play some standard games sch as League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, Team Fortress 2, Guild Wars 2, etc. It has really crappy specs, such as a 1.60GHz intel pentium processor, 2 gig of ram, a sub-par video card. Here's what i plan to upgrade it with.
Video Card:
SAPPHIRE 100315L Radeon HD 6850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X4 970 Black Edition Deneb 3.5GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Desktop Processor HDZ970FBGMBOX
Motherboard:
ZOTAC 880GITX-A-E AM3 AMD 880G SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HDMI Mini ITX AMD Motherboard
RAM:
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7D-8GBXH
Power Supply:
ENERMAX NAXN ENP550AWT 550W ATX12V Active PFC Power Supply
I have the monitor, keyboard, and mouse covered. But i'm also a bit worried about a case. How big of a case would i need to fit all of that in? My current one is currently 15 1/2 x 14 /12 x 6 1/2 inches. I'm not sure how well you can visualize that but could you estimate if that might be enough to hold all of that? If not, could you point me towards a relatively cheap case that could? It would be much appreciated.
Also, if you find any other flaws/issues or just want to recommend any changes feel free, i'm anything but an expert on this kind of stuff.
Thanks so much!
