Hello, and thanks for reading
I currently have this pc (different than the other one)
doesn't show up in my sig for some reason)
and i think that if i upgrade my cpu, that i can play the more modern games again, because canyourunit.com always says that my graphics card is OK, but that my cpu is holding me back. Is this true?
I have a socket 775, so i thought maybe one of these? (sorry for belgian site)
I want to spend money as little as possible, so i don't know what processor would be good to go with my graphics card, or if it's going to do any good.
I maybe thought about this one
Also, i'll be sure to read the "how to build a pc" topic very good, and also this page, so i won't do anything wrong.
Never mind the following quote, i just saw that the card is an AGP
Thanks in advance, i really appreciate the effort you guys (and galls) put into this ^^

And lastly, i have an older Ati graphics card from an other pc, can i use Crossfire so I can improve my graphics? I think my mobo supports it, (weird) source (footwear?). Is there a test that i can take to see if i support it?
Thanks in advance, i really appreciate the effort you guys (and galls) put into this ^^
