			| My computer is crap. there, i said it. it runs diablo 2 on the lowest setting ok, but not much more than that. i need to upgrade it. now... i'm only 14, but fortunately, i have, and can get, more money. so, i need some of your help, to help decide what i should do System Specs (as far as i can tell, it was good at the time... 2002) 1.39 Ghz processing speed 512 MB of RAM Intel Celeron processor (needs to go!) and a pitifully small HDrive (less than 30-50 gigs!!!) no video card(good one for XP anyone?) Gateway(cow, if you will) 150-200 dollar budget now, i just want to do some semi-small stuff. first off, i don't know how good the modem is, but it has been doing a-ok, so that is something that WILL stay. but i DO need more ram, preferably 2 or more gigs. a video card (ok, a bit big there) and a better processor are also back there, and i want an external 250 gig hard-drive, thats all i need (could live with 100 gig one) i have been snooping around (bestbuy.com) and have found some info, but of course, i need more info. i'm thinking of using this... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/EVGA+-+GeForce+6200+512MB+DDR2+AGP+Graphics+Card/9638423.p?id=1218135450094&skuId=9638423 but, i don't know. i was thinking of getting this processor... is it compatible with XP? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Intel%26%23174%3B+-+Core%26%23153%3B+i3-540+3.06GHz+Processor/9715079.p?skuId=9715079&id=1218156774313#tabbed-customerreviews overall, i need some help. please explain what i can get! as well as what would be good for my price range!  | 2011-02-05 20:23:00 Author: theswweet Posts: 2468  |
