Hello all, this is my first forum post and I am new to TH. Let me start off by saying that I am a noob at all this computer building stuff. I own a DELL XPS 600, had it about 2 years, and I love gaming and multimedia, I play alot of FPS games(COD 4), and I would like to make some upgrades. I know alot of you out there are saying, " YOUR UPGRADING A DELL!!!!!!", yeah I am. I am not ready to make the leap into building my first PC yet,but I feel I am comfortable enough with upgrading hardware, and software. So I am wondering you all could share your thoughts with me on what I can do tp upgrade my PC. I will list my PC stats below. Please let me know if you see something I am planning on getting that isn't going to work, or if you have a better idea.
Dell XPS 600
Nvidia C19 mobo
Pentium d 840 (3.2)
4gb ddr2 5300 (667mhz)
2x 80gb WD raptors Raid 0
Seagate 750gb SATA
Dual geforce 7800GTX SLI
Soundblaster X-FI
Your suggestions are much appreciated. Personally I would like to upgrade the processor to one that is more efficient like the (E6850) maybe, and eventually faster RAM, and the video cards. Let me know guys. Thanks.
