Well, now I've finished upgrading (well, theres 128 M of Ram arrived today, to be fitted when I get home) the setup will be:

Duron 700
224 Meg of Ram
Hercules 3D Prophet MX II 32M graphics AGP 4x
Soundblaster Live Player 5.1
Chaintech 7AJA Mobo ( Via KT133 Chipset)
15Gig of Harddrive

and a big hole where I would like the CD RW to be!

Mobo and CPU where Christmas, as was the soundcard. 128M of Ram for my Birthday last week, and Graphics card ... coz it wouldn't work without...

This has improved FR's over my old 333 celeron / V2 setup.....IL2, I'm ready for you now!


p.s. Now I've tried it with the extra Ram fitted....bloody hell! What a difference! The Ram really lets the rest operate.

I'm wondering what's the point of the GeForce 2 on your dad's box if he doesn't play games... I'm betting you could swap that puppy out in the middle of the night at least.

I have a P2-400. 128 RAM, GeForce 2 MX 32 Megs, DSL (256000 up, 640000 down), 17inch princeton, Diamond MX300 sound.
