Re: I need an Upgrade

I'd recommend getting an amd64 for a processor - they run 32bit just fine, or you could go for a 64bit OS. I run Gentoo under native 64bit, it loves that, but 32bit winxp (mainly because ati don't support <9500 64bit windows drivers, and I have a radeon 9250se) which still runs quite nice.

Re: I need an Upgrade

i use amd 64 3200+.. 512 ram.. the ram is rather low but i cant afford buying more yet.. amd 64 works great.. but if you dont have a OS that support it, you dont use it fully..

Re: I need an Upgrade

my computer, i can't upgrade it. (its a freaking laptop). So, i'll deal with:

2.6Ghz CPU (intel) P4
512 DDR ram
40 Gig HD
Geforce FX 5200 Go , 64 MB video ram

And you know what, run HL2 : CSS at DirectX 7 mode smoooth! :P

i would personally get a much better soundcard, soundblaster for gaming, and something complety different if you're gonna use it for anything else.
A better mouse would probably be recommended too, i think.
