Hey All,
The big question, should I upgrade...
I currently have a Opteron 146 CABYE 0540 FPAW running at 2.8ghz for over a year on stock volts, also a DFI SLI-DR motherboard and Corsair Value Select 2 x 1GB PC3200 running at 254mhz for also around a year.
Now everything has been running rock solid for months and I am quite happy with the performance of my system but I realise the value of all my components are dropping as I type this. I will be wanting to play all the latest games next year (will be upgrading my 7800gtx no matter what) so want a system that will do me for another year just like my current one has.
What prices should I expect for my cpu, motherboard and ram and what C2D spec would you recommend (havent a clue on C2D to be honest).
Thanks alot, Sam
