Well, my friend's machine just burned out on him and needed a motherboard and processor replaced. I volunteered mine because i was looking to upgrade anyway. but im really confused as to what is the best bang for the buck right now.
Do I go with a 64bit processor or do i stay with a regular 32 bit. will i need to upgrade my RAM if I upgrade to a 64 bit motherboard?
Right now, my rig reads something like this:
AMD Barton 2500+
2 x Corsair CMX512-3500C2PT
Chaintech 7NIF2 Nforce 2 motherboard
ATI 9800XT Video Card
Soundblaster Audigy 2
Thanks for any tips and or advice.
