i'm wondering of getting an upgrade for my now 3 year old pc. i'm on a budget so i chose these parts. tell me what i can do to improve it
GPU: XFX R7 260x
CPU Cooler: Cooler master hyper 212 evo
SSD: kingston v300 SSD
i chose these parts since i'm tired of all the noise that comes from the pc. i'm a part time gamer and i want the best component for under 230$
Get an R9 270. They can be had for ~$120. They are much more powerful.
The Hyper 212 Evo is a good cooler but it won't improve performance unless you're planning to OC.
Do not get that SSD it is garbage. Get a Crucial MX100.
It'd be nice to know the rest of your build.
$235, not counting MIR

DerKrieger. i wanted the hyper 212 evo since its very cheap and it makes about 90% less noise than the stock AMD cooler. i'm a little sure that the v300 is the old one in the one i'm getting.
