I’ve finally decided its time to upgrade the rig, to prepare for HoT, considering my current pc runs the game at around 30fps MAX on lowest settings, it’ll be nice to be able to enjoy the game to its full potential

However I’ve fallen out of the loop when it comes to specs so I’m looking for advice when it comes to a few factors of the new PC, basically I want a pc that can run the game smoothly, look as beautiful as it should, and be capable to handle running while livestreaming, so…

Here’s what Im looking at as a base

its the GeForce 970 really worth the hefty price? , its nearly £150 more than the 750 it comes with standard, and £120 more than the 950, what am I getting for the extra money?

Do i need a secondary drive? and if so, I’ve heard a lot of recommendations of a SDD secondary, but its another £75 I really need justifying

Only 8gb ram, will this be a massive problem?

Any help, or even recommendations would be HUGELY appreciated

edit: Just seen this one also

To answer your question about the video card: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

As for your primary drive, it should be SSD for your operating system and the main games you play. The rest of your data (music, videos, pron, other games) should be dumped into your secondary, HDD.

8GB is fine. In the future if you want to take advantage of the SSD’s super ram thing, you would need around 16GB (with all matching sticks).
