Just ordered some parts from here to replace my old system,
I have been using this old system for a while now
3200 A64
800XT PE 256mb
2GB ram
So i upgraded to this as a dual core for the 939 costs silly money second hand, and my old 800xt seems to be having some problems:
AMD AM2 4200 X2
Asrock ALiveXFire-eSATA2
ATi 2900GT
2GB DDR2
Not sure how much of an improvement the 2900gt will be over my 800xt but at less that £30 you cant complain, also the dual core will come in handy as i often spend time talking on skype and playing games at the same time, plus i do a bit of video encoding and i love to play supcom which is a bit of a struggle on a single core system, and oblivion.
But hopefully it will be here tomorrow or the day after that so im looking forward to having a new system to build even though its not a massive upgrade, it should do me fine for a while.
