Which most worth upgrading?......

[monster.under.thebed]

OK i want to see what you poeople think is worth most upgrading and will give me better "performance" from the new upgrade....

1)Video Card....Radeon 9500np64mb,
2)AMD Athlon XP like 1400 or something,
3)Adding another stick of 512ram (so i would have 1gb)

thanks for your time.

IMO, all need to be upgraded, but I would recommend the video card to be in the most dire need. The problem with that, though, is then the CPU becomes the bottleneck for the system, and once you upgrade that, then the RAM becomes the bottleneck.

If you could wait a while longer, save up and build yourself a new rig.

I second that... till then - try OCing your current setup - I'm sure there's some potential in that CPU...

If you are a gamer...go with the video card. You can push up to 9800 pro or 6600GT. Try to overclock your processor a little bit too, you will need it to keep up with the vid card.
