Current system is a Dell AGP P4/3ghz with a dead 9700pro. Want to upgrade to a cheap PCI-E box, that gives me better games perfomance for 1280x1024 but also DC for my multitasking. Budget tight. Like to get RAID, and I'll use my current HD's and TFT. Something cheap that I can overclock. I'm thinking the lowest DC P4 or X2 and something like a 7600GT in a Sonata II. Suggestions welcome...
Spec me a cheap PCI-E upgrade.
