Hey peoples, I am totally new here but, I've been looking through your site quite a couple of times. Most of the times I could actually find an answer I was looking for in one of you threads without even registering! But that's a different story.
Now I am in a dead end and I don't know what to do... Well, not actually a dead end. I just don't fully understand a couple of things which make me want to ask you pros a couple of question.
I talk too much. With that said, think of it as my introduction.
Now to business.
I have D915PBL Mobo with Nvidia GeForce 6600 video card.
My CPU is at 3.60GHz and I have 2.50GB of RAM.
I recently got this rig from my late uncle. May God rest his soul.
What I want to do is:
Upgrade my RAM to max 4GB
and
Upgrade my video card to, well, whichever you kind people recommend!
What I don't know is, which card or which RAM to choose! I want to order online, but I don't want to make a mistake and order the wrong stuff!
I need help.
This is what I found for RAM so far:
http://www.directron.com/kvr400d2n3k24g.html
And nothing for video card.
If you have any questions, or you need more info. Feel free to ask. Just make sure that if it's something "technical", I know how to do it.
Thank you all in advance!!!
P.S: I noticed a lot of people saying they have the same MoBo at 3.20GHz and mine is 3.60GHz... Since I got it from my uncle, I am starting to think, maybe it's overclocked? How do I check? I also noticed my BGE bills rose about $200! And this thing IS using 3 fans...
