Hi, I got a question (obviusly) and I want some advice before I got out and start spending money.
Now, I have a PIII 600 on an Abit VA6 board, 128mb SDRAM and a V3 3000 grapics card.
I'm enlisitng next week so I'll be home every other weekend and even then I'm not going to have much time to play but I want to make the best of the time I'll have so I'm looking to the following upgrades:
Get the best out of my board and get a 1Gz Slot 1 PIII, get another 128mb SDRAM and upgrade my graphics card. Now about the graphics card I don't want to spend alot of cash so I'm looking into a card for less then 100$ and I got the following choices:
Gigabyte Rageon7000 64mb SDRAM
Gigabyte GA1280 64mb Geforce 2MX-400
Gainward Geforce2MX-400 64mb

Now as I understand the Gainward is soposed to preform the best out of these guys.
Anyway, wich card of these should I get and should I do the upgrades at all or just wait till the Gf3 cards prices drop?
Thanks

The VA6 is a shitty board because of it's shitty shitset. I would recommend overclocking the PIII 600 and saving your money.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
