What should I upgrade?

My current system is in my sig. I'm conteplating upgrading the CPU to a x2 on the 24th... or else get better ram. Has to be PC3200 since mobo only supports that.

Got about £110 or so.

Thanks,
RameY!

I'd probably pick the X2 as the upgrade if your choice is between CPU and Ram, however you are probably unlikely to get a better clock than on your current CPU, with the X2 3800(in your budget) you are probably looking for somewhere around 2.6ghz at a guess but because it is dual core it should subjectively feel faster.

Thanks for reply. All I need to do now is get the money :rolleyes:

I'd go for a dual core cpu over 2 gig of ram
