Hello, I am not overly up to speed especially when it comes to computers, but I would like to modernize my computer to be compatible to play the current video games (i.e. Call of Duty 4). MY current system is as follows below:
Alienware Area-51
Purchased in 2003
Intel 875PBZ motherboard
Intel Pentium 4-C 3.2 GHZ 800MHZ front side BUS
Corsair XMS 512MB PC3200 LL X 2
420 Watt Power supply
Nvidia GEFroce FX 5900 Ultra 256MB
Windows XP Pro
120 GB Seagate BArracuda HD
Nothing has been overcleocked thus far.
My thinking is buying more memory to increase RAM and install new video card. Would I be better off with new system or just upgrading? If upgrading makes more sense which components are recommended?
Thanks
