Old Reliable Rig

I originally bought the CPU and Motherboard way back in November of 2010. Since then, I've upgraded several parts to keep up with the times for gaming, including the graphics card, memory, power supply, case fans, and storage drive. I also bought a windowed side panel for the 800D case, which has a 200mm Apevia green RGB fan, which lights up the case nicely, and helps with a little extra airflow. The monitors I'm using are currently a Samsung S27A750D 27" 120Hz 3D LED monitor and a very old (but still reliable) NEC 20.1" 20WMGX2 Silver AS-IPS monitor. Also, the SSD is actually a Corsair RealSSD C300 128 GB SATA III drive, which is apparently too old to be listed in the database, so I chose the closest thing.

It's still running okay, but is definitely falling short on CPU performance at this point. It's way past time for a new build!
