What should I do?

[meepins]

Here, make a decision for me please I've thinking for a week and can't decide

My Spec

MSI i865PE MAX 800mhz Mainboard
Pentium-4 2.8ghz 800Mha cpu
Dual Kit 256mb*2 DDR-RAM (Major)
Maxtor 80GB hard drive
MSI FX 5200 128mb AGP Video card


Options

1. Buy a new computer next summer.
2. Upgrade to FX5700 LE add 512 RAM, get new comp next summer
3. Upgrade to 6600GT 512 RAM, get new comp next next year.

Thanks!
and if there is better option... let me know!

Um, I would grab a 6600GT, then in the future, get rid of the 2X256DDR and get 2x512DDR. That's just me personally.

 

[Halo]

I would definatly go with the 3rd option. Your current specs almost match mine, and it should run well for a long time with the 6600 installed.

Woah, thank god, i was about to go with option 2. thanks guys


Thnx

That P4 2.8 chip is pretty good, do you know how to overclock? if you do, i would try to get it to 3.2, and with the 6600Gt, that would be a smoking system!!!

Ps, do you think adding another 512 DDR RAM would work fine? since I dont have enough money to buy 512 x 2. Or do i need to buy 512 x 2 and replace the 256 x 2 one?
Pss, I have 300 Watt power, is that enough for 6600 GT?

Thanks

I would really go with #3 because u get the ram which is very good and plus the intel 64 bit is coming out so i would get a comp with that.
