Okay, here's what I have:
2.4 Ghz Pentium IV
512MB PC2100 RAM
TriGem Imperial Motherboard
2x Western Digital 80GB HDs
1x Western Digital External 80GB HD
ATI Radeon 9800XT Graphics Card
Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card
450w PSU
DVD-ROM and RW..
I have been thinking of upgrading my processor for a long time now, but I am hesitant as I don't know whether it's worth it at the moment, or better to wait a few months (or more). If I upgrade my processor I'd have to upgrade my motherboard, and therefore my RAM (to DDR2) and my Graphics Card (to PCIe) as well - turning it into quite a large investment.
I was thinking of getting a Pentium 4 3.0Ghz Dual Core, 2GB of Corsair PC5300 RAM, an Intel 975X based motherboard and a Radeon X1800XT GFX Card.. but now I'm not so sure. I also see that AMD processors are generally preferred.
Any suggestions? Anything I really neeeed to upgrade now - or should I wait?
Thanks in advance!
