As some of you may know, my old motherboard died, so I had to upgrade some of my hardware. I ended up with an ASUS A7N266-VM, an Athlon XP 1700+, and 256 megs of ram.
My current video card is an old GeForce 2 GTS... I've been pondering upgrading to a new card, though I dont really want to spend that much money (I should probably spend $0 )... so I cant afford the Radeon 9700 Pro unfortunately :frowning:... I honestly haven't played many PC games recently, but I'm thinking about getting Splinter Cell when it's released on the PC... I tried out the demo on an xbox at wal-mart, and was very impressed.
How about the Radeon 9000 or the 9100? $100 or so seems like a good price... is there a place I can get one of these that also ships via the postal service?
Also, who has good prices on DDR RAM? I have 256 megs of Crucial ram now, but since I do a lot of digital photography, and use Photoshop, 512 might be nice.
