Hi there!
Tomorrow i'll be buying a MID 2010 2x 2,4ghz from a Friend here in Brazil - Around U$ 1200,00 - this is the cheapest we can find here.
Really want to upgrade this machine to be a workhorse for at least more 3-5 yrs to come. I work Mainly with advertising photography on Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture one. Also i'd love to be able to play BF4 on Windows sometimes.
I know this may be asked before but i couldn't find a simple question about it.
Can i Put 2x w3690s or the x5690s would give me better results/benchmarks ? There's a huge price difference between them.
GRAPHIC CARD: GTX 970(new) or 680 (used and flashed - ebay)? - To my Work needs (photoshop, lightroom, capture one - nvidia would suit me better or the radeons??). Also wondering about installing a Windows to have some fun on BF4 in spare (Rare) time.
HD - it seems this is a good option, right?: http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Digi...rue&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_5&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
USB - ? - http://www.amazon.com/Ports-Inateck...ue&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_4&smid=A2QGX098CVHYJ7
Thanks guys!
