Advise Upgrade Path

[Cygnus X1]

What would be the best thing to upgrade my comp with?(sig).

 

[Ricemarine]

Antec NeoHE 500w.
eVGA 6800gs

 

[Bobthelost]

Antec NeoHE 400W maybe but i'd just use a fortron, or the one he has already.

 

[mwmorph]

fortron 350 or 400w($30 or $36)
7800gt($270)

 

[Sqube]

I agree with mwmorph; the 7800GT is wonderful.

I'm on AGP and my power supply is fine{thank you very much}:disgust:

BTW-I have sold my 6600GT so I guess I need a video card. Which one? X850XTPE or 7800GS.....?

Is that agp?

 

[alimoalem]

no, the only 7 series card that's agp is the 7800gs, which is nowhere near the performance of a 7800gt but still $300

get a DFI or maybe even epox board with PCI-e for ~$100

get a 6800GS. the 6800GS for PCI-e is better than the agp one i believe.

or you could get the motherboard only for now and save up $70 so you can get a 7800gt

 

[KoolDrew]

7800GT and new motherboard.

If your fixed on keeping your rig, get a 7800GS and o/c it.

The 7800GS would be your best bet if you're sticking w/ AGP.

Evga 7800 GS CO - $319

Type 7800GS on NewEgg's site for more 7800 GS options.

 

[Twsmit]

For $300ish, probably a little more, get a 7800GT with a SLI mobo combo from eVGA. It might be around $330 but well worth it. The 7800GS is a waste of time and a bad value compared to the PCIe 20 piped GT.

 

[dev0lution]

7800 GS AGP unless you don't really game or need graphics horsepower. In that case I'd go with more storage and a better PSU.

 

[Excelsior]

Send the money to me because your computer is already pretty good.

 

[dogmir]

x850xt for $209 and msi neo $80 and bam your done....
