I'm looking to upgrade a build that I put together about a year ago. I am having trouble figuring out whats compatible to what and where I can make the biggest difference with a couple of simple upgrades. The majority usage of this computer is as a HTPC, where I rip my Blu-ray movies and trans-code them to mkv. I also am a light gamer, not a major necessity but it would be a nice option. My current build is as such
AMD Phenom II x4 920 Processor at 2.81ghz
G.SKILL 8GB (4 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066
ASUS M3A78-T AM2+ 790GX motherboard
CORSAIR CMPSU-450VX 450W ATX12V V2.2 80 PLUS
1TB WD 32M WD10EADS
BLU-RAY COMBO LG|GGC-H20LK
use on board graphics and sound
I plan on adding another 1.5TB WD green drive as I have filled up all of my externals and want something inside my machine that can run at a faster speed. Any recommendations are welcome, I have some money to spend, but would like to keep the upgrades under $300.
