| 820889 | 2009-10-16 07:16:00 | I reckon you got a pretty decent machine at the moment. Maybe you could get a new motherboard and stick an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU in? Apart from that, nice rig! Why upgrade the motherboard if the current one still suffices for his needs?... Jimm: Something like this would be a good PSU: www.playtech.co.nz And also, you may want to spend some money on a new monitor, or two. Blam |

You really should've paid more and gotten a bigger size, at least 22" Currently 22" monitors are very cheap, going from $260-$400 I have the VX2233vm myself, which was around $320 |

Anyway having the new LCD certainly beats having the old CRT monitor I had. |

| 820895 | 2009-10-16 07:44:00 | Agreed but more expensive I guess. | Sweep (90) | ||
| 820896 | 2009-10-16 07:46:00 | Next, throw in a 4890 graphics card. Is this what you are meaning blam? www.playtech.co.nz |
