Ah the joys of upgrading your computer :yep:

you'll most probably re-play a lot of your olders game that couldn't be played at 100% on your old computer, eh ;) ?

Ow I love that, games u played on minimum...and you just manage to run it without things getting choppy...but to be fair it looked like CRAP!

and then you get a new machine and the first thing you do is installing the games go 100% details and then WOW!!!! smoooth ...
already firing up windows is like WOW!!! thats fast!!!

I say save some money and upgrade that video card (6150 LE is a Light edition) get an 6600Gt or 6800 geforce when you have the cash in ur pocket.

Ewwwwww. I hate Compaqs. Terrible computers in my experience. My first computer was a Compaq. Disgusting. Didn't last 3 years. 64 megs of RAM (thats upgraded to the max), 3 gig HD, 300 Megahertz, 2 meg onboard video. Aww it was disgusting!

But you might have found the reliable Compaq! A rarety.

Cpngrats.:up:
