    Upgrading

    Interesting. I could have sworn everything I've read with DDR3 is that bandwidth matters more than latency. The sticks I ordered are cas9 at 1.35v (9-9-9-24) and 1600. And for $60...coming from a DDR2 system...it'll be night and day as is, but intrigued now... Basically same price, G.Skill...

    Upgrading

    Around 700 for budget...that didn't include the OS if needed. Assumed I'd upgrade to Win 10 later this year. Do prefer 7...wife has 8 on her laptop.

    [FS] XFX 8800 GTS 512 Alpha Dog and XFX 7900 GS AGP

    8800 GTS: $75 shipped 7900 GS AGP: $50 shipped Original owner on both. So can be registered for warranty still. 8800 has been in use for around 2 years with no issues. Upgraded to a 275. This one comes with nothing but the card. The 7900 was bought for an older machine, but I found other...

    [WTB][US] AGP Card

    Still looking? Have a XFX 7900 GS that I've literally barely ever used (bad power supply in the box I was going to put it in...decided I'll just rebuild the whole thing) that I was about to put up on here.
