Ok I just upgraded from a Duron 800 to an XP 1800+
WinXP Pro
512mb SDram
GF2 MX
SBLive!
AH benchmark...
Prior to upgrade
1024x768x32bpp Mindanao terrain Field 2
Facing North B17 engines running in cockpit offline
41 fps
After upgrade 49 fps
Now the OH NO part...
When removing my original CPU...(the 800) SON OF A squeak!! I broke the white plastic tab that holds the cpu cooler in place on the mobo +( (ASUS A7V133A)
I have NOOO idea why they have to be designed this way, surely there are better methods....
So now I had to buy a mobo as well, funds were low after purchasing the cpu, so I bought an MSI Turbo2.
Phase 2... GF4 Ti4400, will let yas know... surely I can't break anything with that upgrade....
