hey all

i'm looking to upgrade my pc again lol

in it just now

C2D E4500

Inno3D SL7N73UM-HDMI 7150 MCP73U Socket 775 HDMI VGA DVI PCI-E 8 channel audio mATX Motherboard

OCZ 2GB DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 CL 5-6-6-15 Value Series Memory

OCZ Stealth Xtream 500W PSU - 1x PCI-E 6/8pin, 2x SATA 12cm Fan

what i'm interested in is quad core with maybe 4gb of ram?

but the thing is i like xp 32 bit as everything i use works fine on it, if i upgraded to 64bit would all my apps etc work?

the above parts are the 4 things i would be looking to upgrade

most likely swap out this mobo and put it in my DVB-C setup lol as it has hdmi

budget is £200 peeps that includes a graphics card if there aint any decent quad core boards with onboard graphics, but i must have vga and hdmi

TIA

Cheers

Ask and you shall receive:
Quad core CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 2.6GHz AM3 Retail Boxed Processor - Ebuyer - hopefully you'll get one that can be unlocked to be a Phenom II X4.
Mobo with VGA+HDMI: MSI 785GM-E51 785G Socket AM3 8 channel audio mATX Motherboard - Ebuyer - glad I found that board, the graphics card I wanted to suggest would have put the price closer to £300.
4Gb DDR3 RAM: Corsair 4gb (2x2gb) Ddr3 1333mhz Xms3 Memory Kit Cl9 (9-9-9-24) - Ebuyer - I could have suggested a AM2+ board as they take your current DDR2, but the price of the CPU and mobo allow for the new RAM...
Total: £198.78

BTW Gav, you mentioned XP64, don't do it mate, it is the poorest out of all the 64Bit OS's.

Either run the standard 32bit version of XP on your 64Bit machine, or upgrade to Win7 64Bit (or Vista64 if you like using shite).

:)
 
but xp 32 bit wont support 4gb?

True, but just don't opt for XP64, that's really all I'm saying.

It's a disaster. :)

Vista64 or Win7-64 will be sweet.
 
you got a sweet wee link for wi7 64 bit?

;)
