Ok. It has been a while (few months) since I have last dabbled into my Rigs, but I am getting the itch to come out of boredom and start tinkering again. My main rig's components are as follows:
CPU : Barton 2500+ (oclocked to 3000+)
Mobo : Shuttle AN35N Ultra
Memory : 1 GB (2x512) DDR400 (Crucial) - dual channel
GPU : Sapphire Radeon 9700Pro (128MB/AGP)
OS : Windows XP Pro
Now, I am not going to bore yall with all of the other crap on my rig that is not pertinent to the question at hand, which is this - Is it worth droppin some dimes to revamp/upgrade, or should I just wait it out? I am into gaming, and have always fought the urge to get the best thing out there. I am tempted daily for FX-53, KT800 Mobos, and FireGL GPUs, but I am not sure if there is anything out there to take advantage of these components, and since times change so much, I do not want to get into anything that may not last (ie FX55 w/ new socket, PCI-Express, etc).
Anywho, what would you guys think if you were in the same boat?
