Hello,
This is my first post and i need some advice from people who know what they are talking about.
I want to upgrade my current intel 520 2.8ghz chip to the highest rating offering from intel the last intel 670 3.8ghz chip. now this chip retials for about $600 us still but i can find a deal on ebay for under $300.
My question is it worth it? or just wait it out and get a new computer.
My current specs are:
Abit Dura-max mother board 925 chipset
intel 520 2.8 processor. P4 HT 775 socket
ATI X700 PCI-E
Raptor 36gig 10,000 RPM HD
1 gig ddr2 ram
the computer is perfect as is. just toying with the idea of a new chip. or should i say screw it and get whatever is new down the road.
thanks
simon
