Hello everybody. I'm a returning [H] member from way back. I'm currently running on some really old hardware and I've recently come into a bit of extra money so I've decided to spend a little to upgrade my machine. I've been out of the loop so long, though, that I have no idea of where to start.
I've got an old 1400 Mhz Thunderbird with 512 megs of pc2700 and a Ti4200 all overclocked as far as they'll go, if that gives you any indication of what I've been running on.
So I need a little advice. I'm looking to spend about $750 or so on a machine but I have no idea of what to look for anymore. Is there anything extraordinary coming out soon that I'm better off waiting for? I rather want to play Bioshock (and any other good ones that I've missed in the last three or four years, of course), so I guess that makes for a reasonable benchmark.
Think you guys can help me out?
