August 10, 200520 yr Have read multiple posts from many of you regarding upgrades...What I gather is mixed reviews on "When" it is good to upgrade and "how much you need to upgrade" in order to really make a difference. Right now my system is this...Gigabyte KT400 MoboAMD Athalon 2.61.5 G Kingston PC2700 DDR RAMRadeon 9600 ProJust wondering some feedback on what a "next step upgrade" should entail and really how much I need to upgrade in order to really see a difference.ThanksDarryl
August 10, 200520 yr Author I've always used a rule-of-thumb the says if I can increase the CPU speed 50% and/or the video card is more than two years old, then the upgrade is probably going to be worth the expense.
