So I've been thinking of upgrading my graphics card (Age of Conan in sight...
But I think I'd need to upgrade more than that.
So there's the AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (Socket 939) problem. When I bought it, I wasn't aware that Socket 939 will be obsolete soon. Now I want to get rid of it and buy something better.
Then there's the DDR Ram which I'm returning for repairs now, I should get new modules I can sell (and for a good price too, I reckon).
As you can see, I'll need a new motherboard as well.
This is how it looks then :
1. Replace AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (Socket 939) with Intel Core2 Duo E6550 2,33GHz (Socket 775).
2. Replace Corsair TwinX DDR 2x 1GB 400MHz C2 with PDP Patriot Dual LLK 2x 2GB DDR2 EPP 800MHz CL4.
3. Replace Asus A8N-E nForce4 Ultra with Asus P5K Intel P35.
About the graphics card...now I have Radeon X1900XT Sapphire 512MB VIVO / 2xDVI and I've been thinking of buying Radeon HD 3870 X2. Well, it looks nice and the price's good.
What you think?
