I'm still having issues with my PC as I posted in a previous thread. I've messed with it more and it I've got a feeling it's the motherboard. It will take me more time to isolate the issue or issues then it would to just upgrade my PC. So I've decided I'm going to upgrade my Motherboard, RAM, and CPU. I'd like to order the parts as soon as tomorrow on newegg. I had a couple questions:
- If I replace my MB, RAM, and CPU do I need to re-install win7 or can I just boot it up like normal after assembling it.
- It looks like Asus is popular motherboard. Should I get 1366 socket type? Also, is there anything else i should look for in a MB?
- i5 or i7? I noticed the chips have lots of different features, which are the important ones to get?
Any specific recommendations?
