Hi,
I have a computer which is used only for video surveillance. It processes about 8 video streams (from cameras) simultaneously. But it often gets stuck or delays the processing by few seconds. The CPU usage in Task Manager fluctuates between 85-100%.
The specs for this machine are:
Intel 845G motherboard
Celeron 2.4 Ghz
512 MB of memory DDR 333
Currently it uses onboard (Intel extreme) graphics.
Should I upgrade to a Pentium 4 processor or go for a discrete graphics card like Geforce fx 5200?
I figured that buying a seperate graphics card would reduce the load on the cpu and eliminate the lag I am experiencing.
Please let me know what is my best option here.
Thank you
