My current system is:
Athlon 1700+
Epox 8rda+
768mb pc2100 @ 166mhz
Radeon 9500NP 128mb
I'm looking to move up in the world and go towards a 64x system, i've come up with this:
AMD 64 AM2 3000+ - £60
MSI K9N Neo-F - £60
Patriot 1gb PC5300 - £65
X800GTO - friend is selling to me for £60
Now i'm gonna need a new psu and i havent got a clue what to get, i like the idea of the modular ones so something like that would go down well.
But how would this system perform? I mean my old system ran Quake 4 a @ 800x600 reasonably well but it slowed in certain parts, would this upgrade significantly increase my system power?
Any other suggestions? I dont want to spend much more than 250/300 on the upgrades.
