I am looking to upgrade my pc while spending the minimum amount of money to run battlefield 2142. At the moment i have the following:
Cpu: Pentium 4 2.6GHz NON HT enabled socket 478
Ram: 512MB DDR PC2700
GPU: AGP 4* Radeon 9200 128MB
I know its ancient but somehow it ran Battlefield 2 so I didn't complain. I want to get it up and running quickly but with the ability to upgrade when the time comes or more precisely the money. I saw this motherboard
Asrock Conroe enabled sk 775 ddr/ddr2 agp/PCI-express
for £36.88
It has a socket 775 so I can put a Conroe in when i have the money but right now I only want somthing that it will run with and leave money for the GPU. I need a new CPU as its Socket 775 and i have a 478 core. I was thinking this to get me started Pentium 4 3.06GHZ 1MB L2 Cache at £50
As for the GPU this seems the most likely choice for me
7300GT DDR3 1400MHz 500MHz Core
I have £135 to spend so this kit puts me £1 over budget but i think i can handle that. Does anyone have any advice on anything i should change or should i wait and get another £50-100 and get extra equipment?
Thanks for reading.
