So my buddy is planning on getting the Intel Core i7-3930K, he said he might sell his i5 or use it in his old case, I mentioned it would be nice for him to sell it to me and I can give you my AMD X4 965 for it. I am not how sure how much I should buy his i5 for, here are the important things
Has owned it for about 2 years
He has heavily overclocked it to 4.6ghz on stock air cooler(lower lifespan)
He paid 179$ for it.
I know it is a great increase in performance, so I would love to upgrade to it, how much should I pay him in cash? (don't forget I'm giving him my AMD)
He will sell it when he finds a good Mobo, he says he is having a hard trouble finding one, so maybe you could link some awesome stuff for him, he has money, but hes not rich so keep it reasonable for the performance. Here is his rig as far as I know. I know he wants it fairly future proof.
Intel Core i7-3930K (soon) , he will also be buying water cooling so keep that in mind!
GT680, he is thinking about SLI in the future, so try to find something with 3 GPU slots or more
he runs 16gb ram, grab a mobo with support for 32GB or more
Thanks! I was thinking of giving him 70$ and my CPU.
