PC's very slow & now I need to install some GIS & modelling programs. I wonder if it's enough 2 format my pc? Or shd I upgrade either motherboard, RAM, processor or all? My current pc specs:
CPU type: Intel Pentium 4A, 2000 MHz (5 x 400),
Motherboard name: ECS P4VMM2(2 PCI, 1 AGP, 1 CNR, 2 SDR DIMM, 2 DDR DIMM, Audio, Video),
Chipset: VIA VT8751(A) ProSavageDDR P4M266(A),
Memory: 224 MB (PC2100 DDR SDRAM)
Harddisk: Maxtor 2F040J0 (40 GB, 5400RPM,Ultra-ATA/133)
Video adapter: S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR(32 MB)
3D Accelerator: S3 SuperSavageDDR
Audio adapter: VIA AC'97 Enhanced Audio Controller
I've been to a local PC store to ask about this,& this is their suggestion:
Processor: Intel Pentium Dual Core E2140, 1.6GHz
RAM: 1 GB DDR II 667 Kingston
Motherboard: MSI P4M900M (Via P4M900, DDR II 533, Onboard VGA AGP Slot, Sound, LAN)
Will the 3 upgrades affect video/audio quality? Shd I buy a new harddisk & other parts as well? If that's so,am I better off w/ a new CPU? thx in advance
