Well where i live i could either get

this ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 128MB Video Card : $269

or this XP2700+ CPU s462/128k+256K .13 (333FSB) : $ 254


My current system :

1 Ghz athon
A7NX-X Nforce2 motherboard
512 meg 3200 DDR 400 mhz
Geforce 4 Ti4200


can you help me choose whats better for my system?
 
tough choice. :p

I myself could go either way.

I would say buy the cpu/mobo becuase for HL2... your pretty close to min-specs.

Your current vidcard will run HL2 fine, just without all the fancy DX9 effects.

What currency is that in? those prices are double what they should be
 
..

Thanks for your input and
errr i live in Canada, and we have 14.5% tax in my region ;(
 
I'd probably go for the processor.. GeForce 4's are still pretty decent.
 
...

what do u think i could ge tmy new processor OC'ed too
i bought a Volcano 8 heatsink:cheers:
 
You have a great Mobo, get a nice processor togo with it!

on a side note, you could get a 2500+ or soemthing and use the extra cash to start a fund to buy the video card :)
 
Is a motherboard coming with the CPU? cause otherwise youll realise its stupid to buy a CPU thats 1200Mhz faster without a motherboard that can handle it... Otherwise you'd need a hell of a lot of wents in your Little box!
