Hey this is my first post so here it goes. I took alot of parts from my Dell XPS 210 this time last year and put them into a new desktop.. I am kind of bored with it, and want to upgrade. Here's what all I'm running...
Xclio A380 Turbojet Case Blue LED
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Motherboard (Wondering if this board is SLI capable?)
RAIDMAX 730w power
NVIDIA XFX GeForce 9800 GTX +
Here's where it gets weak:
Intel Duo Core 2 6400 2.13GHz
4 x 1gb DDR2 RAM. Two sticks are dell and two are kingston. Both weak.
250gb Dell HD
$13 coolermaster Heatsink
DVD Drive
Windows 7 32 bit.. only b/c of my student discount. I need 64.
What are some upgrades I could make other than changing to a DDR3 mobo? Would it be a good idea to run Raid 0 with two hard drives? Is a processor upgrade necessary also? Thanks
