Okay, So I have not been following the CPU/Mobo/GPU etc trends for a long time. I think my old AMD rig has served its purpose in the last 5 years, now it will be used as a Home PC. I have not played Games for almost 1.5-2 Yrs now, so a lot of the games in the backlog. I'll post my requirements using the standard Template.
