my computer is an oldie but a goodie:
ASUS K8V-VM mobo
AMD Sempron 3000+ (1800MHz, 754 socket)
2GB ram
Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT
XP SP3 (32 bit, trimmed down)
i use it for 3d modelling (no gaming). it can handle anything. until i got this new software. now it's labouring. the slowdown is almost certainly at the cpu.
how much would it help to replace the cpu? The fastest socket 754 processor i can find is an athlon 64 3400+ 2200MHz. this would surely improve the situation?
not really keen to start overclocking at my age, and i don't know how much that would help.
any opinions much appreciated
