Howdy people :)

I've got an AMD Barton 3200 with 1GB Corsair 3200 ram & Ati Radeon 9800 pro with a 600w powersupply.

Basically, as you can imagine I can't really play the latest titles with reasonable frame rates.

I have £200 and I would like you to spec me a motherboard,processor,ram & graphics card.

I'm trying to achieve smooth frame rates on call of duty 2 and battlefield 2142.

Thanks.

Actually having a quick think about it I'd suggest an ASRock Dual-VSTA motherboard which will set you back around £40 but OcUK don't sell it currently, it supports DDR + DDR2 so you can use your old Ram and also supports AGP + PCI-E. I'd then get a Core2Duo 4300 which costs around £110. So far total spend is around £150 which should be enough to pick up a secondhand X800series card or 6800series card with maybe even a 7600GT sneaking into the budget, you have the option of PCI-E or AGP due to the motherboard, I suspect you are more likely to find AGP cards from when people upgrade to PCI-E but who knows. Take a look on the Members Market for secondhand graphics cards amongst other places. :)

Are there any boards on ocuk that will do the job? It's just I fancy going up and getting the bits today :p
 
I remember seeing a processor (intel) back on here a few months ago that could be stupidly overlocked, even on air.

Would that be no good?

Think it was the 920d

Right i've managed to locate another £100 so budget is £300.

So basically I want a motherboard,processor,ram & graphics card that can handle the lastest games.

The more overclocking potential the better :p
