Hey everyone, I am going to be building a new computer in the next year from the ground up, but for now I am thinking of upgrading the video card in my current PC because my card is old and the price of 8800 GTS's and 9800's etc are getting low.
My current PC setup is
Intel Pentium D 830 / 3 GHz
3G DDR2 SDRAM
Serial ATA 250 GB HD
EVGA GeForce 7600GTS
Windows XP
Intel 945G Express mobo
Im thinking of upgrading to a 8800 GTS or 9800. If this isn't a good idea or will bottleneck etc due to my processor etc, let me know, also keep in mind I am building a new PC within a year anyway, so if the upgrade will only be marginal than let me know. Thanks for ANY input you guys have.
