Hi everyone,
new to the board and not really up to date on all things computery, but do enjoy gaming (FPS), which brings me to the point of this tread. Have some spare cash, for once, and was thinking of getting some additional memory and a new graphics card. Have about 450 dollars.
My current system is a dell dimension 8300, P4 3.0mhz, 512ram, radeon 9800 graphics card, ultra ata/100 hard drive, 800mhz fsb, intel 875p chipset.
Most of the above i've figured out from searchs on net.
Also from ireland and hope to buy this stuff cheaper is US (good exchange rate) is there any issues of power or other compatibility problems.
Anyone any suggestions as to what i should do or get (even where to look in New York!!).
Thank you for any advise.
