it takes a game like Doom3 to show you how in need of a upgrade your PC really is, so im looking at some new parts.
#1 being a new video card, and that is going to be the 6800GT
but #2 is where im stuck, the cpu.
what im going to be doing is playing the next gen of games like doom3 and half life 2. also with some high demanding programs.
the cpu's that im looking at are the AMD 64 3000, and the XP 3000.
two very different cpu's.
the 64 is what most people would go for, but for what im going to be doing is the 64 way more then i need? the reason that i would like to know is that i already have a socket A motherboard and if i got the XP it would save me a lot of money, and that is a good thing.
