So I'm trying to update my computer. I'm not going to be high end gaming with it, most likely just Diablo 3 and indie games. I don't need anything crazy but I'm hoping it will last a few years at least.
I barely reach the minimum requirements atm for D3, but this is what I've been looking at purchasing:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Asus P8Z68-V LX Motherboard
i5 2500k
MSI GeForce 560 Ti
8gb Corsair DDR3 1600
My current PC has a Athlon 64 X2 Dual 3600+, 2gb RAM and a GeForce 9800 GTX+
The total for the new parts on tigerdirect is 856 with shipping and tax. I'm not really sure if that's good, but I can probably save some more money sticking to XP and dropping the RAM back to 4gb. Maybe a lower graphics card as well.
Can someone give me their opinions on this? Any help would be great.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, it was either here or in general.
