So I found my older Acer X1420G-U5832 desktop that I had completely forgotten about for probably a couple of years. Now that I've gotten back into computers, I'd like to upgrade this thing into something a bit more capable than what it is right now.
I could really use some recommendations on cases and power supplies, plan for component upgrades below:
Upgrade to 8GB
AMD Phenom II X4 965
Samsung Evo SATA SSD, maybe 512 GB
Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB
Case with provisions for good cable routing
Case with room for upgraded cooling
Wants:
Case with RGB
Viewing panel (Tempered Glass)
Any ideas on parts? Trying to do this on a budget, but the budget isn't too strict and I am willing to wait to be able to get some of the parts I want. Thanks for any recommendations provided.
