Dell XPX 8300 - Upgrade / Transplant (Completed)
Successfully transplanted a Dell XPS 8300 to a Corsair Spec-02 case w/upgrades. Mind you, that many will ask why didn't you invest in a new PC? Well, in a way in this build I did keep the future in mind and there is sentimental value to Sandy Bridge....
With the upgraded GPU, PSU, CPU Cooler, SSD, and case I am ready for a Z270 mobo, DDR4 ram, and i7-7700k processor when I can find a good deal in the future.
I can't complain with consistent 120-144 FPS when playing games.
