I am looking to upgrade my computer. I use the computer for playing WOW and sometimes Madden. Mostly WOW and no Apps.
This is my current system:
CPU:
AMD Athlon 64 3500+
2200MHz
Socekt 939
MOBO:
ASUS A8V-E DELUXE ACPI
BIOS 512
Ram:
Synchronous
512MBx2
VideoCard:
Radeon x800
I am not ready to go for the full up[grade to New MOBO and Vista. I am thinking of making that move in like a year. At that point I would like to do a big upgrade in the 2,000-3,000 range. However I was trying to see if a CPU , Video Card, and /or RAM upgrade is worth the money.
Here are the upgrades I was thinking about:
Video:
HiS Radeon X1950 Pro ICEQ3
CPU:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ Dual Core Processor
I have 2 questions:
1. I am sure the Video Card is worth the upgrade, but do I need to upgrade CPU and is this the best CPU to upgrade too???
2. Should I consider going with Higher quality RAM or just upgrading to 2meg Generic RAM.
Again I Play World of Warcraft and am just trying to upgrade to something that is worth the cash for the next year..
