wad's ur budget? best cpu u can upgrade to shld be 3200+Barton best AGP card u can upgrade to is a X1950pro but i would advice u sell it n buy new parts..
yup. if you have the budget, get a whole new system. no point upgrading. New parts may be cheaper too. But, other than your Hard disk space, you actually have a better system than I have! LMAO
From the looks of it all u need to do is get a bigger HD and maybe a graphics card and your system would prolly be decent enough, at least for me
peaz: plan on getting a new 1 next time... high time u get a better one,too hyper raider : yeap yeap...agreed... im just thinking of HD and Wifi card and graphics card.... so if just the graphics card...i can run vista??
The Athlon XP 2000+ series are considered to be very old for gaming. The rig is fine for a mini home server or a firewall machine, but not the latest games. It's much easier to do a full upgrade, and to the Core. And make sure you save enough of money to do so. New stuff comes too quickly so plan your PC and don't buy in a rush.
Upgrading video card is one thing vista will eat your memory for breakfast will need at least a gig man. Let me tell you one thing vista == EYE CANDY!
i think i'll just wait for it to stabilize( the cpu)... then think of getting a new pc... better i upgrade the graphics card atleast thanks fellas....
sunthing not related...but please reply: my laptop, the spacebar not working properly...sumtime work..sumtime not..sumtime..stuck..how?i checked..its clean....please suggest! thanks
Probably a mechanical problem with the keyboard. Or maybe dust got stuck between the contact points for the spacebar key.
Doesnt shock me at all, you havent seen mine yet, even more shocking.... -AMD K62 500Mhz -192MB PC100 sdram -10GB HDD -Riva TNT2 32MB (PCI version!!)
I think u should get a new mobo & a new CPU .Don't invest in a socket A now coz although u may find these stuffz ,u'll face problems in case of any replacement issue coz they won't be available that long. I can suggest u a system that'll not burn a hole in ur pocket. 1. Motherboard :- MSI K8NGM2 with Integrated Geforce 6150 graphics which is far better than ur current graphics card(I'm also using an Asus Geforce4 MX-440). 2. CPU :- Athlon 64 3200+ 939 Pin. I'm suggesting u to go for this board coz then u won't have to buy a new ram as this board supports DDR 400.If u think u'll get a new ram as well,then go for the K9NGM2 model which supports DDR2 & get an Athlon 64 3200+ AM2 CPU. Believe me, u can't get better than this if ur budget is limited. Also try to get urself atleast a 80GB Sata HDD.
I had a K6-2 450MHz computer and another one of these old 486 DX-33. A K6-2 is still an amazing processor for such an old platform. The Pentium II works better, though, but it's more expensive at that time. Still I hope to have one of these K6-2 or a classic Athlon for my spare rig.
GASJATT: i fell of my chair....ur rig is outta this world man... CALL OF DUTY: good advice..will check how first...but most probably i'll wait for the AM2. YONG GRAND: i still have 3 P100, and 2 P66.. u want parts?? processors still good...Only 1 has a full setup..Windows 3.11 and all..a compaq... ADRIAN: i cleaned the whole thing..dismantle the space bar also...sometime can..sumtimes...cannot...and i dint even use it much...anymore advice?
Adrian: everything looks brand new... im also confuse...maybe i better send to ftec..better hope they are good...cant find their place in the map though...
Oh, this is referring to the FTEC laptop? Is there still warranty? If so, you better send it in FAST!
