Can't help you further, I'm too much of a newbie myself. :D
I find Tom's Hardware to be useful if a little overbearing.
I think it is tomsharware.com
thx man,any other advice :huh:
I think you could get a serious boost just by getting your current pc 512 mb of ram and a better videocard. ;)
I doubt you really need a faster processor unless you are a serious gamer{wich judging by your current pc you are not-no offense- my sucks worse <_< }

ok then I would say leave the current processor.
get 512 mb of ram
and a g force 4 ti4600 or radeon 9700 pro if you got the cash
if not a g force 4 ti 4200 would work just fine ;)
and upgrade the processor in a few months when all the prices drop again :D
to maybe 2.6-2.8 ghz range
thx a lot man this would help me :lol: :D
i am a gamer also, and would suggest a better video card as well as at least 512mb of ram. the cards suggested above would be fine. as far as your processor, it would work fine for gaming. the ram will improve performance for games alot, along with a new vid card.
i am running an amd athlonxp 1800
with 512mb of ram
nvidia geforce2mx400 vid
vid card is older but runs well, the ones the other guy suggested would run even smoother
Yeah, I was thinking you should upgrade your ram too.
i agree. get more RAM. much extra power for little money. :)
RAM, Videocard as they all sugested and a bigger harddisk. If you want to upgared your CPU check what your motherboard can handle.
ya that makes me remember i am not only a serious gamer but also a serious downloader :lol: and now after all this suggestions i feel that i should sell my pc and buy a new onr right :huh: .and how is the biggest size of the harddisk releasrd till now???(eg:80gb,120gb,or high)Quote:

mine is 40 gb and almost full :D
so let the suggestions roll in man :D :lol:
More ram would make the biggest difference here. I suggest getting AT LEASE 256mb more. Check your motherboard documention for requirments and limitations. I suppose you current V-card is good enough, but if you are a serios gamer, consider The Radeon 9700 or the 9500. It depends on your budget. And since your drive is almost full, get a second drive. 80GB and 160GB seem to be the best values (GB to dollar ratio). So your priorites are as follows: Ram, Video Card, Hard Drive. Upgrading your CPU is dead last in priorities.
thx man i appriciate that help :D
No prob, bob. B)
i found more help at intel.com :P :D :lol:
