Hey guys,
I find myself needing to upgrade my CPU. (mainly due to UT3 and other new games).. I'm sure I could use a full upgrade to a new mobo, RAM, CPU and video card... but can't afford it at the moment.
Here's the current specs:
Abit Mobo - somthing with socket 939, can't remember model
2 GB PC2700 RAM
Opteron 144 at stock speed (1.8GHz)
GeForce 7800GT
I am looking to upgrade the CPU as a temporary boost to the performance until I can spend more money on a new mobo/ram/CPU upgrade...
So, what socket 939 CPU should I upgrade to for the next 6 months or so? I am looking to spend about $100-$130 on the new CPU.
Thanks for any advice... and thanks also for links to specific deals that you may have heard about for a 939 cpu!
Eps.
