Upgrade System

[longam]

Thanks Hylander, been running Vista on this P4 for a few months now so I don't think I'll have much trouble with the new one. I have all the tricks down now to run it smooth. (ok smooth as u can until they fix everything)

I was considering going with a dual vid card setup but it just wasn't worth the extra cash in my book. I currently run a 7800 and if the performance is even better with the 9800 I won't complain. Also I noticed the bus speed is around 1300 on the MB and I'm currently at 600 or so.

I'll do some comparison test when its all said and done because I'll still have this one online for my daughter.

Edit: and the improvement part is so true, I have upgraded this system so many times.....

As for playing games I would rather choose AMD phenom class CPU instead on Intel, no matter how many core it has.

And of course speaking of saving bucks, cheaper but not the worse option was to leave max 2 GB of ram with Win XP
