Hi, my first post.

My system is old. mainly as i never got round to buying a new cpu.

Currently its

Athlon Xp2500 @ 2.3
2gb Geil 3200 dual channel 400
OCZ stealth xtreme 600w psu
Sapphire x1950 pro 512mb AGP
DFI lanparty mobo, cant even remember the model now. something like a nf2 ultra b or something. its discontinued.

i mainly play race sims and CSS.

I used to have an unlocked asus 6800 128mb. But i wanted to try and get a bit more out my machine so i bought the PSU, the 2 gig of ram and the GPU.

And to be honest ive not really seen a massive performace gain at all.

So i took the plunge and have invested even more money into this damn machine. lol

Bought an asrock AGP mobo socket AM2 with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+ and cooler.

Do you think i can expect to see a performace increase over the old 2500???

Thanks in advance
