Hey guys,
Ijust wanted your advice on an upgrade; I'm planning ;for my brother's computer. The goal is to get about two to three years left of decent gaming on a machine in desperate need of a RAM and video card upgrade. The main limiting factor I can think of is he's got an AGP slot.
What he's got now:
~2GB Processor speed
512 RAM
128MB 5600 Geforce
What I want to get him
2 1 GB RAM Sticks or should I get 2 512 MB RAM sticks for 1/2 the price
128MB GeForce 7600 GT; for 185 dollars
What do ya'll think? The goal is to drop about 300-500 (max) dollars to let him be able to game on his computer for a year or two more; ;before he's forced to get a new computer. (We're trying to hold off on him getting a new computer until he buys the one he'll buy for college. That's three years from now, since he's 15 now).
It's a stretch, but what do yall think?
