so my friend is selling me his graphics card, so i figure i might as well upgrade the core parts of the computer while i'm at it. my budget is around $300. this is for a modest gaming computer upgrade. i'm not hardcore, just wanna run games like assassin's creed, bioshock, and left 4 dead pretty well.
i need:
Harddrive
CPU+Mobo 2.5ghz atleast preferred, i hear intel+gigabyte are good brands
DDR2 Ram
Powersupply
my current specs for my custom built rig are:
graphics cart: nvidia Geforce 7600gt (upgrading to an 8800gt)
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3700+ single core 2.2 ghz
Mobo: Asus A8N-E
Memory: Corsair 1x2 1gig DDR RAM (new mobo will be for DDR2, though)
Hard Drive: WDC WD800JD 80 gigs
newegg DID have some deals, but i waited too long and now everything is super expensive again. i don't really know where to look, so i was hoping you guys could help me out! what's the best i could do with the amount of money i'm willing to spend?
