Changed my plans completely lol.

Went on a lil' impulse buy.

I bought a 2.4ghz AMD dual core system, with 2gb RAM, Nvidia 8800gts, and i forget the rest of the spec now. Uh... it has a sound card... it was a good one lol.

Never mind, its cool, its cool. Oh yer, its came with an 80GB hard-drive, 10,000mhz speed or something or another. And a DVD RW.

Then i added my 150GB hard-drive, and another DVD-RW, and thats my system set!

Only cost me £220. Not bad, right?

I hope you all agree with me, or i wasted my money lol.


Edit:

Thanks to everyone who offered advice! I'll be upgrading this system with a new motheryboard and new processor later on anyway, but for now its not too bad a system... right...?

There is nothing wrong with keeping that system. You could upgrade to a 6000+ X2 provided your mobo supports it and keep your current PC for maybe another year or two. You really don't need to buy/build a new PC.

If you sincerely want to build a new PC, how long are you willing to wait?

If right now:

I'm not sure about mobo however.
