Alright, for christmas i have about 200$ to spend. I want to put this money into my computer. I have 2 options that i would want to do, A. buy a new mobo+ Processor. I was looking at thesehttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813135151
and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819103606.
Also i was think about getting a new video cardhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102618

i currently have a radeon 9550. What would give me better gaming performance, the video card or the mobo+processor?

well if you only have $200 and you want better gaming performance i would spend it all on a decent graphics card !.
 
I agree with a graphics card suggestion... They tend to make the biggest difference in gamming. Most games are more dependent anymore on the graphics card.
 
I read the x800gto's overclock better than the gt's, but I don't have one to verify that, but maybe worth looking into cause they're only a little bit more
 
Yea true, 20$ more. I will look into it. All i want is a card that can play fear. A couple of my friends have this card but they are running Athlon 64 3700+, 3gb ram, and 74gb raptor hard drives. So i want to know if i can play fear with this card and my cpu oc to 1.65ghz? Thanks
