I've been able to "appropriate" around $1000 for upgrades.
Current rig:
Chaintech 7NIF2 Socket A
AMD XP 3000+ FSB 333
2-512Mb Mushkin Purple PC3200
1-512 OEM (came from emachine carcas)PC2700 yes it does work w/the Mushies!
FX5700 Ultra (BF2 plays only on lowest settings)
Looks like I can salvage the Purple RAM.
Did some research, hard to keep current w/ technology.
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe 939
Athlon 64 3000+ Venice (OC the crap outta it)
GeForce 6800 GS (OC like above)
Bigger Power Supply
With this setup, will 1 Gb RAM be enough?
PS. I know that's only about $650 spent, leftover $$$ goes for new paint job on my '72 Dodge Charger.
All (NO PENTIUM) opinions welcomed, I haven't built in awhile.
Forgot about HD, SATA 16MB cache add $100
