Happy Birthday Old man! And many more!

I think I have enough information to make a decision. You can close this topic =)

Definitely gaming. I'll read up on those links, thanks for the help Hansen.

Thanks for the clarification Woz, I appreciate your advice as always. I think I am good and you can close this unless you want to see if a few more people have ideas.

I figured probably I would need the MoBo and processor. Not familiar with Xeon processor though, how does it compare to the new i5/i7's? Also, I normally go ASUS on MoBo's, is the MSI comparable? I also realize I want to get out of this deal with the minimum of cash, I might be dreaming on this one heh.

Name: James Candy Rank: 1stSgt. Type of issue: Hardware Brief Description of Issue: I am currently using a build from 2012 but need some suggestions on upgrading. I would like to replace some components instead of a completely new build. I realize the main things to upgrade are MoBo and processor but I need the right replacements on a limited budget.
