new system or new card
My current system is
1.7 GHz 512 SyncDram 64 MB nVidia Geforce 2 Windows XP MOST current games are taxing my system if they play at all. I need opinions if I should upgrade this video card, and with what, or wait until I can afford a new system. I am not looking for a million fps but must be playable. Currently playing Medal of Honor and would like Doom3. Thanks |

If you want to play state of the art games like Doom 3 I would seriously
consider buying a modern system. -- DaveW "jailed" wrote in message ...

What model motherboard do you have ?
Maybe just upgrade the processor. What type/speed is the memory PC133, DDR2100, PC2700 ? That graphics card is getting a little old, a 5700 Ultra or 5900 would help. "jailed" wrote in message ...
