So I bought a new comp, it's very good but I was thinking why not make it even faster?
I was thinking new processor and mabey a new video card? Now I'm not sure how good mine is, I know its a fairly high end one.
Was thinking mabey the
9800GTX Nvidia
or the ATI Radeon HD 4870 Graphic Card
Mabey go up to DDR3 RAM, but so far from reviews I've read, right now the price just isn't worth the step up.
Or even move up to 8gigs or RAM, but would that even noticably help so much?
Any suggestions?
Specs:
Case = Enlight EN 7250 Tower Case
