Currently have an athlon 64 3200 cpu. im not sure of the motherboard. i have 512 ram . 30 gig raptor hard drive and dual monitor video card the geforce 4 mx or something like that.
I used to play cs back in the day and started playing a bit ago. my fps is like 100 in regular cs but floats around 50 - 70 at lowest resolution and with an fps config in cs source. i was wanting to get to 100 fps constant in source and 100 fps in quake live and with decent resolutions.
If upgrading video cards i do need dual monitor video card bc/ i use 2 monitors for work.
So my question is: is it a waste to upgrade? or should i be looking for a new cpu. if getting a new one i was thinking the cheapest one on tomsharddware that is for 500 dollars. Basically ive been out of the scene so logn i dont really know what is good or worthwhile. Any help is appreciated. Thanks alot for your help
