another thing is that i noticed that, trotter, is that we both have the nvidia geforce 4000 mx, dont you think that it is a good card? how come you recommended a different card?
I would get the FX-5200 instead of the Radeon 9250. the Radeon 9000 series cards did perform better for the most part, except for the 9200 and 9250. they are really crippled.
i am about to get a fairly old system that is a compaq and not quite sure if its components will be compatible with my dell, just wanna know if you guys think that ram, harddrive etc will be compatible?
