I cant believe its been almost 4 years since I built this machine. But it continues to do everything I want, so I cant seem to bring myself to upgrade. Now with the Core2 Duo coming in, I definately will wait a year longer for prices to drop on it. Anyway.....
I have Asus A7V8X Mobo, Athlon XP 3000+ Barton @2400Mhz, 1GB PC2700 DDR, Audigy 2, and Radeon 9800Pro 128MB.....
Im thinking of upgrading video card one last time for this PC, when I overclocked my CPU from 2100 to 2400MHZ, it had absolutely no effect on my 3DMark05 scores, none at all. It seems Im still video card limited, not bottlenecked by my CPU yet. Does this sound like the right line of reasoning? If so, any suggestions on an AGP video card for my PC? Ive see in the ORB at Futuremark that others with my CPU have scored 4000 higher with GeForce 7800GS 256MB card, sound good to you? Thanks alot.
