Upgrading

[Nick]

id rather not upgrade my whole system becuase i dont have the money, thanks for the GPU advice though

get a Opteron 165 to hold you up for a while... then overclock.. .or just get the GPU upgrade....

with an extra £20 you can get these:
AGP:
dabs.com - Dabs Value ATI Radeon X1950Pro 512MB AGP DVI (13371)

Pci-express:
Sapphire X1950Pro 256MB GDDR3 DVI TVO HDCP PCI-E Graphics Card - Ebuyer

i think i may consider the X1950 might have to be an early christmas pressie tho

yeah...get the opty 165...great overclocker.

I would give you an acfp 64 or 7 for free...but i guess you already got a zalman.

so are you gonna go for gpu,cpu, or both?

the x1950pro will be a big improvement over your current card, and vernon, isnt the 3800 similar to the 3600? dont they both max at about 2.8 with his zalmon9500
:edit: nvm missed the opty post
