Right now i have a AMD64 Clawhammer @ 2.2ghz, 1gb RAM, K8V SE Delux mobo, and a 9800 128mgb vid card. I need a new video card i think the most. What would ya'll suggest, for AGP video cards and/or another gig of RAM? Or should i just put off the whole bit, and wait untill next summer when i could possibly drop 1000-1300 on a whole new set up. fuck maybe i need a new monitor, im using a 17in CRT, LCDs bug me.
 
If there are games that you aren't enjoying because the graphics aren't very good, then I say upgrade the graphics card.

However, I think if you are still enjoying your games then you should stick with what you have until you are ready to build a new computer. Utimately it comes down to having enough graphics power so you can enjoy your games.
 
Wait until next summer, otherwise get a filler card (7600GT, 7600GS AGP is about to hit). Seriously though nothing will make you happier than a $1000-$3000 build (2 grand plus will more than do it, 3 grand will blow your mind).

I had a 98pro 2 cards ago, so I know there is no way in hell it cuts it in todays games. If you wanna play games decent now, get a 7600GT, or, for slightly less power 7600GS.
