Hi;
I have AMD 2100+ processor (but only runs at 1751 something, I think thats what speed it is suppose to run), 512DDR samsung ram (2X256DDR in 1 and 2 slots), ATI RADEON 8500LE 64mb video card, and Soltek KT400-A4 ATX SOCKET A DDR400 AGP4X 5PCI ATA133 USB2.0 mother board, 80GB hard drive 7200 rpm. Whenever I play battlefield 1942 (DESERT COMBAT MOD) online it is slow when playing on high settings; however, when I turn settings on low then it tends to slow down when there are so many wehicles at a time. Also, I played "MEDAL OF HONOR: PACIFIC ASSAULT" demo, and it was running so slow, same with demo of "STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT". So, my question is what i need to upgrade? I was thinking of getting 512DDR of memory by same brand and sticking it in 3rd slot. Will it solve my problem? or Do I need to buy a new processor? If so, which one will be better for my mother board. I have a 17 inch. case, with 3 fans allready installed, and can install one more, if computer gets hot. I think my power supply is 2.5V, but I am not sure. Or Do I need to get a new VIDEO CARD? if so, which one should I get. I can't spend lot of money on these parts, as I don't have lots of money to spend. I want something cheap and better quality.
Thank you guys.
