Ok, I am in a dilemma here. I bought a Dell Dimension 2400 about a year ago, not expecting to do any (serious) gaming on it. I recently got the new Matrix Online game and don't meet some of the minimum requirements, including: my 256MB RAM to the min. 516MB -- and my Intel Extreme (HA!) Graphics/video card. Since there's no AGP slot, I am considering a PCI card.
I'm not a computer "wiz" so I'm not sure what to do (and am low on money). Should I buy a memory upgrade to 516MB and a PCI card? I was recommened to the PNY GeForce FX 5500 128MB DDR PCI graphics card and disable the Dell drivers and motherboard video.
I want to consider selling/buying another computer as a LAST option as well.
This is a farely large game, that I want to play to the fullest, but it looks like I don't have many options...
Any suggestions/comments?
