hi this is my first post on ocuk im currntly trying to upgrade my pc so i can play AoC when its released
my dillema is do i buy a whole new kit or try and build 1, though as ive never done it before im a little bit worried about that or try to upgrade my old 1.
current system
k8n sli motherboard
amd athlon 64 dual processor 4400+
2gig crucial ddr 400 ram
8500 gt 512 graphics card
tagan tg420 power supply
now money is really tight so im wondering if i can upgrade to an 8800gt or a 9600 gt card and that will that be enough of an upgrade to play AoC at half descent settings, or do i really need to throw that system away and either build a new system or buy 1 from either ocuk ,pcspecailist or chillblast.if i do get a new computer im really looking at a maximum budget of £700.any help will be much appreciated as im a bit of a noob when it comes to computer hardware.
