I have an Intel E6400 Core 2 Duo (2.13GHz) and a Gigabyte GA-965p-ds3 with 4GB of ram.
My video card is a 7900GS.
I only have about $65 for an upgrade, so I was thinking a 9600 GSO or perhaps even a (512MB) 9800GT if I can find a good deal.
So my question is, am I going to see a good increase in performance (in games) with just a video card upgrade? I know my CPU and MB are several years old, but I just don't have the cash to upgrade those right now.
Do you think this one upgrade will be a significant change to extend the life of my system for a little longer? Or are there better options?
Thanks.
