Hi all
I have a socket 478 p4 3.2Ghz Northwood
Asus P4C800-E Deluxe
512MBx2 Kingston HyperX pc4000
Antec 420W
6800GT AGP
and I'm thinking on upgrading but wondering if what I'm thinking on getting would be better or not among other things...I'm looking at getting:
Asus P5WD2
socket 775 pentium D 920 (2.8Ghz)
1GBx2 DDR2
6800 GS PCI-E
Would this be a improvement? how much?
Is it worth getting DDR 667, or would DDR 533 be enough?
Would my power supply be good enough?
I only play RTS games on occassion
I have a Hauppauge WinTV PVR 500 which I record a lot of stuff and cut up clips
I do a lot of programming
and DVD ripping
Are the pentium D's 2 cores both at 2.8, 3, 3.2...Ghz a piece? or do they add up to a 2.8 or whatever when together?
any responses and suggestions are appriciated
