Soo... Once in a while I need to make trash gibs for forums...

And post something useless...

Anyway, as in title I got an upgrade for my other rig... The old Q9300 and 8GB of DDR2 are now retired... And might be sold off...

Nothing special new though, no more cores, or more threads... Only about 28% higher clock speed though... Which boost ;D

So then, what did I get? I got an ASRock Z77 Pro 3, Intel i5-3470 and 12GB of ram... For measly 130€... Which I think is pretty okay price...

Anyway are you already bored of reading? Yes? No? Maybe?

Trash is often links... Like in spam... And here...

It's not new exactly ;D I just replaced mobo, cpu and memory... Still running old 7870 Ghz Edition... But at 1920x1200 it works well enough for most of the stuff I play ;D

That's a nice upgrade.
Did you perchance do any pre/post upgrade benchmarks?

Thanks. Still, might be worth something, 2GB sticks of low latency memory... Best you can get if you are going to try to upgrade. Not expecting much maybe 20€ would be nice for all 4... Man can dream ;D

Congrats on the new parts. However, 12 GB sounds uncommon.^^

4+4+2+2... I didn't complain, included in the price and seems to work.

An upgrade is an upgrade, no matter how little the stats differ.

Almost double the performance, if some test are any indication. Which is pretty good.

I care very little for how powerful my rig is, hence I don't ever upgrade, unless I really want to play something new either that or 15 years have passed since I got a new PC.
But if you're happy with what you got, then I guess congratulations are in order.
Also, if you're serious about that title, just because you can get something really cheap (like with the recent Humble Bundle, though this applies to pretty much all of them), it doesn't mean that something is trash. The Walking Dead and Puzzle Agent games are some of the best story-heavy games I've ever played (though TWD isn't really a game as far as I'm concerned). I can think of plenty of trash that's also overpriced.
