I am thinking of upgrading. I am not able to get out of my computer what I think I should be getting. I am thinking about the the video card or the memory. I am leaning towards the 9800 256 ati. or the OCZ PC4200
ASUS P4C800-Deluxe
memory is OCZ PC3700 and now, it is holding 800fsb locked in
3.2 clocked to steady regular air 3.54
note, can do 3.7, but it gets unstable and I have to lower it.
maybe going cooler ?? I have a Volcano fan I can add, it is just SO loud....
ATI 9700 128mb card, cannot clock it much,333/317 is about it, then I start getting artifacts.
Sound Blast Platinum Audigy 2, with 5 point surround, Hey, it doesn't get much better then this for the sound, so I am going to leave it as is.
hardrives 36gig Raptor> Rocks
120gig IBM 7500rpm storage
