halp revive my old pc

[Ettan]

Cpu; Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz (first gen)

Motherboard; Msi x58 pro-e socket 1366

Gpu; 2x ATI Radeon HD 4890, does not support dx 11

Psu; corsair power supply tx850w

OS: Win 7 64

RAM: 6x 2GB Corsair xms ddr3 1333mz CL9 kit

Hd; 3x WD caviar black 1tb 3.5" 7200rpm, no SSD



My dusty old pc from 2009. Still worked somewhat okey for wow, but for anything new it falls short without dx11.
Thinking I need a new gpu, cpu, motherboard and an SSD. So pretty much everything.
Any recommendations?

Budget? I suggest getting a GPU and SSD now and waiting until October to get new Intel stuff. The parts themselves obviously depend on how much you have to splurge.

Could throw like 1000~1500 usd on it.

Could throw like 1000~1500 usd on it.

Unless you were hellbent on using the old parts, for that price you could build completely new.
There's a thread that has the forum format for new build threads. Go ahead and post that info here so folks can better help figure out needs. Cheers!

With that budget you can buy new computer and use parts like case and power supply from the old.

Not a bad system. Personally, I do not feel the 7700k is worth it. Yes, a Ryzen system will perform a little worse in single core scenarios, it's not really a lot though. You could use this build and just replace the 7700k/Cooler/Motherboard with:

and save nearly $300, knowing you'll be getting 5-10% less performance in WoW and other Single Core Bound situations or, you could use that $300 saved to increase the graphics card which will make a much bigger difference:

$55 more than the intel build, but is has a GTX 1080ti. Granted, I wouldn't go that far, unless you have a 4k monitor. You could easily increase to a 1070 or a 1080 though and still be less than the intel build though. If you do anything that has a heavy single core load, it will be a bit slower. Not as slow as some people make it out to be, but it will be a bit slower.
