So I had originally had a smaller budget for Christmas and I had chosen to go with a Newegg.com - AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb 3.0GHz 4 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor HDX945FBGIBOX
I officially got my Christmas budget today at $200. What I would like to do is upgrade my CPU and GPU to something much better than I have now or hear what you guys think.
Right now I have:
Athlon X2 4450e @2.3
GT240 1GB DDR3
Should I upgrade both in this budget or just get one upgrade?
The rest of my build with relevance. (already owned):
Newegg.com - CORSAIR Builder Series CMPSU-500CX 500W ATX12V v2.3 Active PFC Power Supply
Newegg.com - Foxconn A78AX-S AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard
It has been flashed to AM3. Here's the support list. Foxconn Support - CPU Support List
If I upgrade both what would you suggest?
WARNING: Partial to Nvidia.
EDIT: This build will game and use music editing software.
