Hey there guys.
I'm considering upgrading the stuff in my computer and I don't know where to start. I do some light gaming and some CS5 but I want to improve its rendering speeds most of all[VRay]. And I don't want SketchUp lagging heavily or worse, crashing on me anymore. I have the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330 which I bought almost 2 years ago.
Specs:
Intel Core i7-2600 Sandy Bridge
CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.40GHz
8192MB RAM

Max TDP: 95 W
Package: Socket 1155 LGA
Core Voltage: 0.936 W

How much am I looking at here for a decent upgrade? Should I sell a kidney?
