Well, my dad finally gimme the go ahead to fully upgrade the PC. We upgraded the RAM and Harddrive a while back, but it still didnt change the fact that we have a crappy Athlon XP 1.25GHZ CPU
There are many tech people here so I was wondering whether you could answer a few questions.
1. Which CPU is better AMDs or Pentiums? I usually run multiple programs such as a music player, photoshop, internet browsers etc.
2. Where do you find the components, I have a few sites but I just want to see what you recommend (UK only if possible).
Because my processor is so old I need to get a new motherboard for it. However, I would like to keep my RAM which wasnt long ago upgraded, I have PC3200 RAM, which I believe is DDR400? Just thought it would be useful information.
Also, im probably going to need a new graphics card as I have a AGP slot, but any cheap one will probably be better than the one I go now
Thanks for any information :happy:
