Ok, here's my question.
I have a 1.2 ghz t-bird system and I wanna know what I should upgrade to get me the most performance, I am not a big gamer, I do mostly cg and set@home. So here are my current system specs:

1.2ghz AXIA @ 1.4ghz 1.775v 42-45 c Load (depending on ambient temps)
256mb pc133 crucial ram (another 512mb is on its way)
geforce 2 gts 32mb 410mhz ddr
maxtor 60gb eide hdd
16x dvd

Any recommendations would be helpful.
thanks

To be honest I would save your money or buy something else like a flat screen or lian li case, imho your specification is ample enough for your requirements

No, your system is fast enough for virtually anything. Wait another year at least.

You wouldnt notice much going up from 1.2 to say 1.6. I tried it and frankly I wasted $. I would save your money until some real different architechure that goes beyond 2 gigs comes out.
