im planning on upgrading my sister 1.8ghz celeron computer and i was wondering which should i upgrade first....the motherboard becuz hers doesnt have a agp slot and it really pisses me off tryign to play game on her comp...or should i upgrade the cpu into a p4 2.2ghz
well, i'd get both. intel mobos arn't that expensive if u only want an agp slot. as 4 the cpu, if ur getting a new mobo and cpu, might as well go with amd, if ur pressed on cashQuote:

btw, do u still want my 5200?
i would get both but including the gfx card i only have about 200 to spare...unless you want me to get another celeron and cheap mobo combo again...its either the cpu or mobo
$40 Socket A mobo for Amd Athlon XP and DuronQuote:

$40 gets u a AGP 8x mobo
AMD AThlon XP 2600
$100 gets a pretty good cpu. oc's pretty well
if u want a good hsf, those are $20-40
and my 5200 is $55. so u got enough
hold up....
40+100+20 = 160 and then unless you're planning on selling me your card for 40 then i dont have enough....maybe ill get some cheap hsf instead.
or u can get this:Quote:
