CPU:
Intel CORE i5-2500K
3.30 GHz, 6MB Cache, (LGA1155,95W)
MOBO:
MSI-P67A-G43 (B3) ------- DDR3 1066/1333/1600*/1866*/2133*(OC)
MEMORY:
PATROIT 8GB (2x4GB) PC3-10666 (1333MHz)
GPU:
GTX570HDSC (1280MB GDDR5)
SOUND:
Xonar DG PCI 5.1 Audio Card (XONAR_DG)
PSU:
Corsair AX750 GOLD - 750watt PSU <<< Is this powerful enough for a GTX980??
Are my specs, I'm ready to upgrade my machine and wanted to know which memory I could use to hit 32GB of main memory (ram)
--- Is four of these okay? Patriot Viper 3 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz Dual
Additionally if my machine could support a GTX980. I know I'm on a PCIExpress 2.0 board but I hear they are backward compatible and I won't have any bottle neck issues with it.
I mostly use my machine for gaming, but I also like to record gameplay in 60FPS using Dxtory, some games can handle it, but recently more and more are struggling to play in high settings while recording in 60FSP (for youtube uploads).
WIll more RAM (from 8 to 32) and a better GPU help in this? Or do I need to get an I7 and just build a new machine from scratch?
I'm asking GAF because GAF helped me build a machine about 3 years ago, but my first issue was this ------ HERE and HERE And it was due ram that was incompatible, so I want check and double check before I buy anymore.
