Well, I have the opportunity to sell my existing parts for what I paid for it (possibly more!) so I have a choice. Bear in mind I'm NOT a big 3D gamer! I seem to play few-to-no 3D games at all.....
I have:
754 Sempron 2800+ (will not overclock, possibly due to mobo or RAM limitation - 3x512MB forces it to run at DDR333.)
nForce4 4X board: Gigabyte K8NE
3xOCZ Value 512MB DDR400
GeForce 6600 OC Gigabyte GV-NX66256DP with silentpipe
I could sell all the above (with the exception of RAM) and replace it with:
939 Athlon64 3000+ (3200+ if on sale!)
nForce4 6100 or 6150 motherboard with onboard 6200 graphics
... and have cash left over so I could buy one more 512MB stick, or just keep the cash in my pocket..... pity the X2 3800+ is too much more money.... 😛 But at least I'd be on 939 so I have that option!
So.... sensible? Other ideas? 🙂
