Hey guys what do you think of this idea:
I have been considering keeping my current build, (except for the processor which I plan to upgrade) for another year and a half or so until Direct X10 and Vista become mainstream. Then I was going to replace my mobo, graphics card, and processor.
Question 1: Does that sound like a good idea?
I'm running:
Running Windows XP X64 edition
(1) Radeon X850 XT
(2) Gigs Corsair DDR ram
Asus 8AN-Sli Deluxe Mobo
10,000 rpm 80 gig Raptor Drive (Windows and games on this Drive)
7,000 rpm 250 gig Drive (For file storage)
1.81Ghz AMD Athalon Processor *
Logitec Z-5300e 5.1 THX 5.1 Surround System
Asus 8AN-Sli Deluxe Mobo
I've had some trouble figuring out which processor was compatible with my system (a friend helped me build this one). I did figure out though that it is 939 pin.
Question 2: Are these processors compatible, and which do you guys recommend?
