I'm considering upgrading but am wondering if its worth it at the moment. My current spec is as follows :
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ Barton (11 x 200) ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe 1.01 1008 Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 120GB (SATA) ATI RADEON 9800 (Flashed to Pro @355/400) 2x256Mb Corsair XMS3200 TwinX 6-2-3-2 SLK-947-U / TT Smartfan II 420w Thermaltake Pure Power PSU What i'd thought about is the Asus A8N-SLI deluxe with a AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Winchester and i've got a ATI X800 SE 128mb PCI-express gfx card I can pull from another machine. Would there be a significant increase in games etc with the new mb, cpu and gfx card or would I be aswell keeping what I have and waiting for a few months to see what else new is to come out ? |

Take a look at the Alienware computers. I'm thinking of getting one - The Aurora 7500 with harddrive upgrade and the big Nvidia card. www.alienware.com
