Hi,
I've got a 2.13GHz Core 2 Duo, 1GB Dual Channel DDR2, PNY 7900GT (256MB RAM) and I want to upgrade for better gaming performance. Nothing's overclocked.
My question is, should I go up to 2GB RAM or add another 7900GT and go SLI?
I can get the RAM for about $175 or the video card for about $225. My power supply is already good to go for SLI.
I was fairly happy with my machine's performance running FEAR and Ghost Recon - just occasional stutters with most settings pretty high. However, Flight Simulator X on high is causing a lot of stutters and slow frame rates. When it stutters, the hard drive light is on solid or flashing.
Any suggestions, recommendations or opinions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jake
