Hey all (it has been awhile since coming on here), time for an upgrade but am not sure which way to go. Currently I have:
Athlon XP 3000
1gb ram - single channel (does dual channel make much difference?)
200gb disk's
ati 9700 (non-pro)
so..
if I added in a X800 GTO from gecube would it make much difference or is teh CPU/MEM holding me back more.
B&W2 groans a bit at 800*600 and HL2 is a bit poor. Guild wars is ok but most new things e.g. quake 4 had to be on minimums. I added in another 512mb of memory at xmas which sped uploading dramatically but I would like more candy. The question is wait and upgrade it all or do a gcard now and the rest later. Any responses appreciated as usual
