Hi, not sure where to put it so I've put it here.
I have plans on upgrading my PC soon but I'm not sure what exactly needs to be upgraded (I have problems with cash so i don't want to pend too much money on it.).
This is my specs:
Motherboard - MSI Mainboard S-775 P45 ATX PCI-E Audio GbLAN SATA-II 1394 DDR2/DDR3 Retail
RAM - CORSAIR XMS 1024Mb x4 DDR3 1333MHz
CPU - INTEL Core2Duo E7600 Box 3,06GHZ 1066/3M S775
GPU - ASUS GF GTS250 512MB PCI-E
HDD - SEAGATE DiamondMax22 320GBSATA3GB/ sNCQ
Thanks.
I'd get a new motherboard, a new GPU and a new CPU. Maybe a new PSU depending on what you have.

I'd rather not. That's practically building a new computer and i don't have so much cash to spend on it, yet.

I think that buying a new mouse from Razor will add much more gigs to my PC and will make it faster. :downs:
I hope you are joking about the adding more gigs to your PC. Anyway, what is your monitor resolution? The GTS 250 is still a strong card, but you really have to give us a budget so we know what to look for.
I'm guessing that motherboard is doing some damage.
Maybe if you put a bit more information on the parts we could do a better analysis.
Vendor codes, prices etc.

Yes i was joking, hence the :downs: in the end.
I don't have a budget but i don't want to change my motherboard.
Also i don't think i want to spend more than 100-150 bucks on the upgrade since it's working really well ever as it is right now.

Socket 775 is very old.
And 1156 is going to be outdated soon.

Haha wrong thread :byodood:
What is the problem exactly?
This is a good balanced system..
Upgrade would be,
Q9xxx series used
ATI/NV HD57xx/GTS450(GTX460?768MB)
