I was wondering if this emachines model is even worth upgrading
new proccessor probably an AMD because I'm a gamer.
thinking an nVida 8800? if not I'll just go cheap and get a ATI Radeion 1200HD because that looks nice for WoW and CSS (which I play) I use it for surfing and that no homework or anything
and probably upgrade my ram from the shit to about 2gigs..
just curious if i can take out the 512 thats already in there and put in two kingston 1gigs?

even if you had the 8800GT in there you wouldnt be using it as an 8800gt. it would run more like a 7300 because of the motherboard in your computer. it wont send the GPU information fast enough, it would be a big waste. you need to change everything out and start over.
