Currently running amd athlon xp 2500+
512mb of ram (dual chan)
ati 8500 aiw
a7n8x deluxe mobo
I'm planning on building a 64 bit system sometime nextyear... Planning being the key word
right now, playing Wow lags the hell out of me, its really really bad. I've optimized my wow, so that all the visual effects are running really low, but its still pretty bad.
should i get more ram first?
will upgrading to an aiw 9800 work? wouild it be too much for my system to handle?
i dont really think its worth it to upgrade the cpu... that and i cant get the damn fan off :X
If i do go the route of a new video card, I'd like to use it in my new 64 bit system once I make it, so I might splurge for one of the pcix ones. Seeing that my mobo doesn't support that now, are there such things as pcix pci expansion slots? :X
advice plz
