I have a p4 1.7 with 512 DDR 266 and a ti4200. I like to think I'm a 'gamer" and to keep up with these new games coming out and to run them at higher resolutions I am beginning to think I need to upgrade.
I always read THG articals on new stuff, especially CPU's but when is a good time to buy? I mean I read all this stuff about Intel is going to launch new products soon - DO I WAIT? Or do I go for a cheap upgrade of MB, RAM and AMD Processor (prolly 3000xp) for a few hundred bucks?
Any advice on whether to wait for the new Intel chips or just buy now because I might end up waiting forever?
By the way I am on a lowish budget.
Thanks!
