Good Day! I am confused when upgarding my pc do you have any advice on which componet should I change to improve my performance.
My pc has the following hardware all have their lastest drivers installed:
P4 1.7 willamette socket 478 FSB 400 with coolermaster votex tx
MSI PM8M-V socket 478 FSB400/533/800
Corsair DDR400 CL2.5
Sapphire Radeon 9600XT with Coolermaster CoolVivd and memory heat sink
Creative Sound blaster Audigy2Zs 7.1
Seagate ATA100 80GB hardisk
The cpu and GPU had been properly cooled. So actually I'm thinking of upgarding the cpu to a celeron D instead of the pricey pentium 4"A".
I'm a gamer I just want no lag in games like call of duty 2 when there's many people it start to lag otherwise in single-player games it perform very good. It's loading time and responsive gameplay but only came to lot's of players game it start to lag. Is celeron D a good choice or a pentium4"A" better, I'm a budget buyer so which is good for me, thanks!
Why my radeon9600XT having shadow error in the lastest games like hitman blood money, there's shadow but it is shattered, I have the catalyst 6.5 Driver installed. Or because it uses nvidia ultra-shadow technology to power it's shadow. If that's the case which is best for me to upgarde my radeon to a geforce 6200/6600/6600Gt. Changing graphics nowadays I'm scared as the time I brought the radeon 6600GT came out so I perferred 6200 is it's a good choice or should I stick to my radeon 9600XT and just play without shadows it's fine with me.
I'm confused please help, many thanks!
