And your upgrading Why??? Most people on here would kill to have the system you...(not me though, I have a 1.2 GHz Tbird system that flies!!LOL)

 

[Fausto]

I agree, just keep your rig and get a big-arse monitor or something. Games are so much nicer to play at high-res on a 19" or bigger monitor.

can i have your old system!

 

[jcuadrado]

shouldnt upgrade now...maybe max out the ram...thats about it....and a big screen 19 or 21....but a gig is still good...

 

[Ameesh]

get the best monitor ever , an iiyama 22 visiomaster pro 510 A10HT

 

[Nitemare]

Might want to slap a 512 MB Dimm in there
Maybe another bigger hard drive, like a 60 Gig or so 7200 rpm,
and get you a supersized monitor.
Nothing really wrong with your setup.
I imagine if you want to part it out, it would go like hotcakes.

Go MP. You will love it. BTW, the system you have is fine for most games.

Are you kidding? you're going to upgrade a machine like that?
Do you think my machine could use a little help:
AMD K6-2 366
256MB PC100 SDRAM
2 MB shared video RAM
5400 10.0 GB HD
24x CD-ROM
2x1x8 CD-RW
56K Modem
10Mbps card

Get more hard drive space, more ram, and maybe a better video card.

Go with the Tyan Tiger MP or Thunder K7, Dual Athlons kick a$$!!! It'll cost you however.

Forget what everyone else is saying. It sounds to me like you want to upgrade because you are addicted, dont worry, I am too. I would get a SCSI setup. Sure, it might be really expensive, and might not be that much a performance increase. But come one! No true geek would be complete without a SCSI computer.

EDIT:
lol... didn't even read the rest of your specs....
get a big monitor....

 

[gregshin]

mmmm....SCSI

ever since i went SCSI i have been addicted to POWER components

Forgot to add i have Sony G400 '19inch screen

 

[Kelvrick]

No zip drive? Hmm... Thats a nice system. Why don't you throw another stick of 256 in there, upgrade to win2k and go with a dual mon setup? That'll be nice. Perephs? Do you have toys? Webcam, new opt mouse, microsoft natural pro keyboard, Microsoft Sidewinder voice, new speakers, I can go on and on. What about a nice pair of headphones for late night gaming?

Oh! What about customizing your case?

Yo! ShizNitz.... Time to upgrade dood!
