Hi all,
This is my first post on THG site. I have been coming here for some time and really appreciate this place. Here is my question.
I have an older rig for a computer and am not financially ready to build a new system from scratch yet. However, I enjoy playing games a lot, and really look forward to the upcoming release of Age of Empires III. I was wondering if I could ask some experts for their advice on how to potentially upgrade my system in a band-aid solution to help my hobble along for a while and still enjoy some RTS games including the upcoming AOEIII.
My current configuration is:
2400XP Athlon chip in an Asus motherboard, which suports AGP 8X. I have a gig of Ram and can insert two more gigs if necessary. I have an ATI 9200 Radeon with 128mb ram.
If I were to throw in, lets say a N-videa Geo Force 6600GT, would my sytem benefit greatly?
I really appreciate any advice.
Thanks in advance!
