My current spec.


2gig of ram
Core 2 duo 6600 @ 2.40GHz
Radeon X1900 512
Asus P-5B delux mobo...

My GFX card is on its way out "display corruption" And i posted on the gfx forum. I have been looking at the Gainward ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-070-GW

What other upgrade do you think i could get that would make a difference?
I thought about 4 gig of ram?.......I dont want to spend lots of cash..but i thought i might as well get something when i order my new card.

I play wow/eve and a few fps games like Crysis ect.....

Any one

Obviously i would say the 4870x2 but most people don't have that sort of money to spare on a GPU.

So the 4850 or 4870.

If you run a 64bit OS then 4 Gig of Ram would be a nice boost to your system.

WoW and EvE don't need a high end system so don't spend when you don't have to. Sorry, OcUk.
