Hi all,
I consider myself a casual gamer; most of my time is spent in the on-line community "Second Life". I am experiencing a great deal of lag and though some of it may be on their side, I suspect it's time for me to upgrade. Here are my specs, sorry if I'm posting too much, not sure how much is needed for a good assessment. Please note that my psu is only 300 watts, so I am concerned that I will also have to upgrade it as well:
Dell Inc.
Inspiron 530
Windows Vista Home Edition/32 bits
Processor: Intel Core 2 Dual CPU @ 2.20 GHz
Disk Space Disk C: 342 GB Available, 455 GB Total, 342 GB Free
Disk D: 6266 MB Available, 10239 MB Total, 6266 MB Free
Physical Memory 2046 MB Total, 1040 MB Free
Memory Load 49%
Virtual Memory 4329 MB Total, 3295 MB Free
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT (latest drivers installed)
Current Resolution @ 1680 x 1050 @ 60Hz
Power Source: 300 Watts
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Please be kind, I'm kind of a newb.
