I haven't upgraded my computer in more than 2 years so I decided it was finally time. I looked around at some reviews and checked Newegg and it seems that the best bang for the buck is an Athlon 64 3700. I was just about to add it to my cart and start checking motherboards when I noticed that the the speed is 2.6 Gigs. WTF? I'm running a 2 year old 2.6 gig P4 Northwood @ 3.12 gigs right now.
I was planning on new MB, CPU, Ram, Vidcard, but would the CPU upgrade be worth it?
I don't want to just buy a new vid card (Radeon 9800 now) because my MB only has an AGP slot which leaves me tied to old tech.
So, what should I do?
Thanks.
