Hi all...This is my problem
I have only limited money to do one thing, either
1)upgrade my CPU to a Core2Duo 6600
2)upgrade my VGA to a 8600GT
I can sell my old processor/VGA(whatever it maybe) for about $100, so my actual cost is 8600GT for $100 and E6600 for $150
What will give me the biggest improvement in my gaming play?? I play COH, Battlefield, Total War series, AWGR etc.
My current specs are
2.6GHz Pentium D 805 (Overclocked to 3GHz)
7600GS 256MB VGA(PCI-E)
1GB DDR2 667 RAM
ASUS 945 Chipset motherboard
Is my current system CPU bottlenecked or VGA bottlenecked. I dnt want to spend $100 only to see that I have upgraded the wrong component and to see there are no performance increase at all. :-()
So Plz advice me.....
REMEMBER- I can only upgrade one...
Thanks.
