Hi chaps,
I don't post very often but have found the advice i get invaluable.
I am currently running the following.
Phenom II x4 quad core 955 black edition 3.2ghz at 3.6ghz
Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UDP4 mobo
2 x 2gig Corsair xms3 ddr3
Asus Radeon HD4890
all on win xp.
I have about £100 - £150 i can spend on the system to further improve it.
The question is where would it be best spent. My initial thought was a 2nd 4890 for crossfire but then i wonder whether this is an investment worth making.
My other thought was a copy of windows 7 to make use of the 4 gig ram and then perhaps a couple of games or a new KB and mouse combo
Where would you chaps suggest the money is best spent?
Cheers
Meurig
