When b/f’s friend upgraded to a processor with more physical cores (and went from Intel to AMD), he left his old mobo and processor here. I was going to nab the cooler for my future build.
Then b/f remembered: that’s an i7. And it’s Haswell, apparently. Likely a 4790k, based on base clock that they remember.
So, to get me through, I’m gonna take over the Haswell. I can use the DDR3 my computer has now. I’ll need case, PSU, and an SSD. I’d like a new HDD, because I don’t really trust the one I have currently.
Also would like to have a GPU upgrade. Possibly a matching set of DDR3 to add to what I have.
(Wish the Steam cash b/f will be getting from selling CS:Go stuff was actual cash. Would hate to break ToS and use it to buy games for people for RL items. cough)

But yeah, this will get me an upgrade.
