Im just thinking about for now upgrading the video card and the ram.I wanna get another stick of 512 ram.If I uprade the video card, its a Sapphire Radeon X1300 512mb card that Im thinking about, will I really notice a differnce because Im still using a slow processor. Will I just be wasting my money until I buy a new processor? Any help is greatly apprceated thank you.
Your current video card is AGP, correct? The Sapphire Radeon is PCI-E, at least the one I saw. Judging on your CPU I'll assume that your MB won't take PCI-E.
