Hello all.
I am thinking of doing a small upgrade to keep my system going for another 8-12 months.
I talked to my computer guy (he built the system for me) about Dual-Core. he recommended the Pentium D. The D will allow me to upgrade without swapping boards. It will cost me around $200.00 CAD.
He didn't me a model number, but did say he would O/C it to about 4.0-4.3 GHz for me.
Is this upgrad worth while?
Current Specs:
Intel Pentium 4 630 HT - 3.0 GHz O/C'ed - 4.0 GHz
ATI Radeon Sapphire X1800XT 512 MB PCIe
2 GB (2x1GB) Corsair XMS2 DDR2
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic
Western Digital 74GB Raptor
Maxtor 200GB DiamondMax 10
Thanks in advance.
