i know some about cpus but not all. my cpu in my specs has a fsb of 1333mhz. i'm planing in the near future to upgrade my mobo to a ddr3 based one to take advantage of my cpus ddr3 capabliliy now my the mobo i want can support up to 1600mhz ramand the ram i want is 1600mhz. will my 1333mhz fsb cpu be compatable? heres the link to the componets....
the games list is larger but its far from huge the core 2 duo/athalon 64 x2's are turning out to be quite powerful and long lasting. but its recommended you go quad core simply because the power in one is significantly more. you want the "full" quad core game slist here you go:
metro 2033
stalker call of pirpiryat
battlefield: bad company 2 (isnt even all that necissary as a core 2 duo can play it on high details)
shattered horizons
gta 4
arma 2 benefits significantly from one but again isnt necissary
operation flashpoint 2: dragon rising
bioshock 2 (again not completely necissary)
thats about it.
yea prolly just stick with what i have now. i can ply crysis on high. i dunno what new game comes close to crysis. i think COD MW2 might come close
Dunno. The cheapest that will still run respectively fast and not overheat. Don't need any gravy.

to avoid hi heat go with intel prossesors and since your not gameing then ones with a intel x4500 chipset . and you can go with ddr2 or ddr3 ram. you can get some decent laptops with these specifications with windows 7 for about 500-700 dollers. Bestbuy has plenty of good deals
go into your network shareing center. then go into "set up a new connection or network". then you should see an option about seting up a tempary hoc network
if you havent already, go into your graphics driver or game video options and completly turn off your AA and motion blur. also turn ur shadows down to low and run the game in DX9 and you should notice a jump in performance.
You will notice a decent performence boost if yoo go from a 9800gt to a HD4870 512mb/1gigbut it would prolly be better to get a more modern card like a HD 5770 1 gig or what stated above a HD 5850
noted, yea theres alot of way to reduce HD usage. I listen to internet radio instead of filling the HD up with music and i'm only planing on puting only a few games on it. so far i only have fallout 3 and medeival total war. I got some movies on here best the rest i'll use a dvd
