What next?

[merlin87]

Just seeing what i should upgrade next. Check out my system specs and let me know what should i do next. This is mainly a gaming rig and I mostly play BF2.

AMD 3800+ newcastle
foxconn mobo
74gb raptor
1gb dual channel (3-3-3-8)
6800ultra

I was thinking more ram? But if I upgrade the ram, should i just buy another 1gb dual channel or should i just replace the whole thing with 2gb dual channel? Also the video card is nice, but with the prices, should i get something like a 7800/7900 card? I just dont know what to do at the moment.

I would say if you could sell your 2x512 and then get 2 1 GB sticks that would be the way to go. If not 2x512 more would be fine.

The video card is still fine, I love my 7800 but they are pretty hard to find new these days.

How is that Foxconn mobo treating you? Its a relatively cheap brand. If money is burning a hole in your pocket get an ASUS or something.

The mobo I got for free. So im not really complaining. Although I do get random restarts, I havent looked enough into the problem, i just kind ignore it haha. I dont have any compaints about the board and it seems to be working fine for gaming.
