    pretty nice...make sure that the pentium D is compatible with ur system because it looks like the pentium D ur getting is for socket 775 or something like that and there are celeron D's out there that are socket 478 or 775, so check to make sure

              nice system minicoop, will certainly be an improvement :)

              im waiting for feburary before i upgrade, can anyone guess why

              current pc doesnt need it but when i would get a new pc, i would end up with 3 but the oldest one would get offloaded to family/freinds,

                Thanks for the replies.


                Also, Its not just my parents buying it, its also my grandparents and other relatives. My parents only give me like 100 lol.


                Edit- And also, before anyone says it, im not going to get a dx10 card because I'm really not spending that much and also, I think I'll be fine with the 7600gt because I dont also have to have the best video card out there and my x300 is good enough for me so the 7600gt should be great.


                Edit again- I was thinking and I just want to know, is the 7600gt an average card? From the reviews it seems its really good but I've seen some comparisons to other cards, and it seems lower. All I want is to play on all medium/high and be able to play other higher end games.

                  The only thing i recommend, is putting just one gig of memory, since the 1.5 will not run at DDR speed since i am guessing you will be using 3 slots on your mobo.
                  Besides that it all sound good.
                  P.S. I see that you are in maryland. Shoot me a pm, i have something you might be interested

                    I only have 2 slots, Im taking out one of my 512 mb sticks and replacing it with a 1 gig. I will eventually take the other 512 out and put a gig in there so ill have 2 gigs.


                    Also, I sent you the pm for whatever it is....

                          You'll be able to run BF2 all high with maybe only 1 or 2 of the dynamics on medium, but it will be a world of a dif for you. The jump i had from all low to med/high was amazing.
