I'm at a difficult position with my current gaming PC. Its at the point where i either scrap the whole thing and get a brand new "expensive" machine, or try and breath one last bit of life into it, but i need your help.
Here's what i currently have
AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+ O/C @ 2.4ghz
2GB OCZ platinum DDR 3700 dual channel ram
Evga geforce 7900 overclocked
asrock 939 dual sata 2 mobo (volt modded)
The games that are coming out for now are starting to require me to turn down settings to medium to get decent frame rates out of them.....
would i get much of a performance boost of i upgrade any of my components? eg: few hundred dollars vs few thousand?
i could get a AM2 cpu daughter board to allow me to use AM2 chips on my board, or go with a 9000 series geforce card, but would this really help get me the performance im looking for?
or save up for a whole new beast.
thanks for your help guys.
