OK, so my other PC was broken, and long story short we brought it in and got it fixed. Happy. Anyways, while we were at the computer shop, I was talking to the guy about maybe upgrading my PC, since it runs pretty shitty even when playing something like Age of Mythology. Basicallyyy I just want a faster processor probably, and more RAM. I don't know anything about hardware other than the bare basics.


So uhhhh... okay, the guy was saying how we could get some Asus motherboard and an AMD 2600 processor or something, and that would cost around $270 (Canadian). I don't even know if that is a good price or what. I'm not even sure if AMD's are good or not, I remember teh Klown badmouthing them a few times so y'know Mind you, I'm not really looking for a powerhouse PC or anything, just a bit of an upgrade to run a few games more smoothly. Cost isn't the primary issue, but it's something I'd like to keep in mind since I'm gonna be paying for this myself. Including the RAM, I don't wanna spend over, say, $400. I don't know how much processors and motherboards and all that fun stuff "normally" go for, so I don't know if this is a big rip-off or what. Just trying to get some input from some more computer-savvy (such a gay word) people, so I can get my PC looking a bit better.

For the record, I have no idea what my current system specs are like, really. I have a Pentium III 800 mhz processor, and 256 mb of... I'm pretty sure it's SDRAM, but it might be the other kind. Pretty sure it's SD though, 'cause I know that both our PCs have opposite kinds, and that one has DDR or whatever. Stupid Vega.
