Ye I'll take a look on Cpu-z when i get home to specify my Mobo (It's tiny)

My current specs are as follows:

Amd Dual-Core 4050e @ 2.10Ghz (2.6Ghz OC)
XFX 9500GT Nvidia
3.00 GB DDR2 Ram
Currently on Win Vista

I thought a 500w psu was more than enough, but that 600w look nice and cheap
I'll look into it.

The cpu goes to 3.4 Ghz , so if you do that , and maybe one day , buy a decent video card , you'll need that much power !^^

What, my video card is as decent as decent gets
The cpu bottlenecks the hell out of everything.

My processor gets a 4.8 on vista's crappy Experience index
While my Gpu gets 5.6.
But thats not too good of a source because my measly 3.00 Gb ram gets a 5.9.
WTF

128 bits, burk , puke ... jk , yes it is decent , I was just talking graphic cards , sorry but 256bits are great for HD gaming ,and that s what I use for years , so I ll always see ,a decent one, with 256 bits(at least of course) since my x800pro(ati). What I really meant to say is that a decent card for me is a powerfull one ^^

Ah well, my standards aren't that high. Smile

Cumming from a 6150Se Nvidia card you can't complain.
This wasn't too long ago either, like 1 month ago.
I will upgrade in the future for sure.

I've never bought a recertified product.
Something that cheap, i wouldn't be surprised if it died a little more than 1 year.

Exactly , and Im buying 400$ a card i keep it 3 or 4 years ^^

Is getting a 10000 RPM hard drive really that much of an upgrade?

My ISOs are on a 7200 RPM hard drive and I don't feel much slowdown.
