Need help!
A surge has taken out my pc. I have tested the psu and it's dead. No 5v or 12v lives. So I just purchased a new GTX 970 and corsair cx 750w.. Plugged in etc, and I have found my motherboard was also fried (thought this might be the case!) and appears my ram is gone too. As a result, I'm going to upgrade.
So.. With my new video card and psu, I'm now needing to get a new motherboard, CPU and ram.
My pc was an i7 2700k, and I have a NAS with 2 x 4tb in a raid set up. For my o/s I have an SSD and another ssd for my games and photo editing. So it's really just the motherboard and CPU / ram that I need to upgrade.
Any recommendations? Haven't upgraded in years as the 2700k was such a beast.
I am not keen on overclocking but I'd rather get something decent and have it last a few years. New gen gear, preferably.
Thank you chaps! Price range isn't too much of an issue, just good value for performance etc.
