this is my PC here.
Basically I want to upgrade the GPU, CPU (to a quad) and ram to 4GB.
The motherboard is IPIBL-LB (Benicia)
Check here. for more info
IMPORTANT INFO!
There is a replaced 720W PSU already in there and the GPU
is actually a Radeon 4600 series. (not sure which exact model)
Some other quick info is that the pixel shader version it supports is
3.0 (GPU that is.)
Also it's 32 bit OS. XP SP3.
It says it supports
Intel Core 2 Quad (Y) Q9xxxx
Intel Core 2 Quad (K) up to Q6600
Which series is better?
Here is some ram specs
Dual channel memory architecture
Four 240-pin DDR2 DIMM sockets
Supported DIMM types:
PC2-5300 (667 MHz)
PC2-6400 (800 MHz)
Non-ECC memory only, unbuffered
Supports 2GB DDR2 DIMMs
Supports up to 8 GB on 64 bit PCs
Supports up to 4 GB* on 32 bit PC
Here are the slots
One PCI
One PCI Express x16
Two PCI Express x1
(No idea what is being used right now.)
But basically I need some advice on what to get!
GPU wise I don't have a clue and ordering from Aus
is a must. My budget is *da da da* $350 AUS.
Edit: I might need a extra fan too...
