Looking to build a new desktop, this one is 10 years old and starting to show it`s age. Done well, quad core 9600 cpu with 8gig ddr3 ram etc, but time to upgrade.
Going top end i5, SSD decent graphics card and all that, but getting a bit stuck on the RAM.
Don`t know whether to go 32gig DDR3 or 16gig DDR4. Costs are similar. Done the ggogle thing and some say one, some say the other. I`m swaying to the DDR4 option, but keep thinking the DDR3 is the way to go.
No gaming, PC mostly used for video work and general day to day stuff, accounting, spreadsheets etc, so wondering what thoughts you kind folk might have on which way to go.
Thanks
