    Upgrade or not?

    I was thinking about the second option(and that is most likely what I am going to do), but 23 seems to big, maybe a 22 lol. At the same time, I was wondering whether my system would be able to handle newer games at that resolution with max settings. I wish Nvidia would stop avoiding price wars...

    Upgrade or not?

    Yeah, and it turns out I have 250 dollars in best buy gift cards, not 150.

    Upgrade or not?

    Well I can spend more than 150, I mean you could add like maybe 100-150 to that price, but remember it's best buy, so their selection is limited plus they are at a higher price than Newegg.

    Upgrading current rig

    I chose it because it's dual core and for gaming I thought the general consensus was that dual core was better because most games can't take advantage of 4 cores. I thought 4 cores was more for like video editing and the like. As for the ram, thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely pick that...

    Upgrading current rig

    Well it varies, some are 1 some are like 5. I pretty much am building a new system. I want a motherboard, CPU, RAM, and hard drive. Graphics card I already have, and it's only like a year old.

    Upgrading current rig

    Nah, no monitor upgrade in the near future. Yeah, I run most things at 1280 x 1024. I'm not worried about running things at high resolutions, I'm more worried about dealing with textures and lighting and other special effects.
