Upgrading

[Fuzz]

I need some help spending my money. I cant decide what to upgrade. I have $500 to spend on my computer. My specs are in my sig. What should I get?

Holy Cr** man! those specs are areally good , me if i would be you , i would seel my 6800GT and get1 7800GTX then collect more money for an extra one , thats just an idea... Get 4GB of ram maybe? could help if you do something else then gaming... if your 3800+ isnt dual core , then one...

Drop the raptors and buy a 400Gb SATA or 2x 200. You could also save it and buy another machine in general.

u culd sell ur processor and buy a dual core. or u culd get rid of both ur raptors and get one of the new western digital 150gb raptor drives. and then have probably 300ish left over for something else.

Im really thinking about starting a new system. But im really stuck on whether to put the money into my old one (one in my sig) or start another one.

Meh , get a laptop a good one or a P3 just for the Fu** of it.

New PSU and a different set of RAM just for fun IDK lol tahts already really good.

hmm i would keep saving? do u notice your comp stressin itself at all to keep up with you ? when ur gaming? or when ur multitasking like crazy running all kinds o programs like all adobe stuff and watching a porn flick? cuz u should only upgrade what u have to to keep it up with your speed of use. besides your 17, you should be saving up to put a turbo in your car.

I agree with Empire, you dont need to buy stuff fro your computer, im sure yours plays games highest settings with no lag now. But if you did want to get something, i would do what cromewell said and drop the raptors, and i would pick up 2x 320GB SATAII 16MB hard drives and RAID them, much more storage and better performance.
