August 24, 200520 yr My workstation is showing signs of age. I am generally happy with the FS performance at this point at about 25 FPS with most slider maxed out, but I do get stutters and want to run everything just a tad more smoothly. I understand that a CPU upgrade would probably be the best thing in my case.Here are my specs:AMD 2500+ Barton1GB (2x512) PC2700 DRAM, non-dual channelRadeon 9800SE (soft-modded to 9800Pro)I am thinking about upgrading to an MSI mobo with a AMD 3500+ Newcastle. The ultimate plan would be to pair it with a 6800GT, although I have read that I should be in good shape with my current graphic board. To top the upgrade, I would love to get a 19" LCD (I currently just have a puny 15"). Good idea?Or would a bigger LCD initially add more to the "feeling"?
