See I'm debating this with myself. If you switch out the mobo, psu, proc, ram, hdd, vid card, nic, and sound card of a computer at once, is that an upgrade or building a new comp?

All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening.

Aw, dude....definately a new comp. Its a new computer without the case, and without the monitor, and without the speakers, and without the mouse, and without the keyboard. But i vote aye for new comp.

So what all are you getting?

Thats a new computer, or at least I think so. When you replace the mb, processor, ram, video card, and hd it is essentially gutted and refitted.

Get a case and BUILD a REAL new computer. It's probably another 50 dollars extra.

Refer to it as upgrading to a new computer and move on.

Sell the current one and use the cash to pay for a case + anything else the cash stretches to.

LoL Flamey!
You sure have put up a truely intriguing problem!

If you stay with the case, then you have upgraded, else have bougt a new one. If we see something new on the outside its a new comp.

Hey Camie, howz you, and where are the other boys?

We're all still here, annoying each other and generally being childish.

Yo Girish good to see you in The Other again, don't you have a MSN Messenger name too, I don't have Yahoo.

Good that you have work.

I love my Delta 60HP 7000 RPM fan that puts out more dB then CFM :eek:
