my pc is gradually lagging in games now,
i have an i7 920 processor (with dx58bp motherboard so cannot overclock, biggest mistake)
4 gig ram
9800gt green edition 1 gb
1 tb 7200 rpm drive
so i want an upgrade,but please remember i am on an budget (thought of buying asus p6t deluxe v2 but too costly at this stage!)
so i would like your opinions, i thought of buying only a motherboard cause in some threads i read cpu becomes bottleneck!?? i tried running different program in the background and yes game became far slow, right now my cpu is at stock 2.66 Ghz
i also thought i could buy an used xbox 360 for my gaming need??
or a total upgrade!?!! if yes ,what all to change and what to do of the left over parts?!!
thanks in advance.
