PC3200 DDR now what?

[kartel]

I need some advice, I want to upgrade but I dont know what to keep.

I can get a better cpu, but I need to know what i can use my ddr with.

Should I get A 850XTagp, and more ram or get a new am2 mobo and ddr2 ?

Looks like I need to upgrade everything for Vista and I have to deal with DDR2 now.....

Most decent on-line stores, let you search on mobo features including memory type.

my advise:

1. get a better video card (i have radeon 9600 and it's pretty sucky nowadays.. 9600SE is even suckier)

2. u can get more ram.. vista itself needs around 550-600.. if u wanna take advantage of superfetch and resource-hogging apps or games u'll need at least 1.5gb..

Ya I think im limited to 1.5g on this board.

I'm trying to decide if I should go am2, 939 or what........i'd like to keep my ram and get another set of what i got.

I do need a better videocard although this one has done not bad and is way better than 440 or the 5200 i had.

I like the 850XT.........but then pciX is getting pretty good fillrates now.
