I just want to know if the upgrade will be worth the $550.- $600. to upgrade the MB and cpu.
Figuring the MB (975 or whatever is available from Intel) cost at around $250.00 and the CPU around $350.00
If I upgrade, what do you think my APPROXIMATE overall % boost will be by keeping all other components?
Operating System: Win 2000Pro
CPU: Intel P4 660 3600MHz
Motherboard: Intel 955x
Memory: 2048 MB of Crucial pc2-5300 ddr2 667 Ballistix 3-3-3-12
Video Card: EVGA 7800GTX 256mb
Hard Drive: Western Digital Raptor 74.0 GB
Sound Card: Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi
10%? 20%? 50%?????
