Ok, so here it is......
I have a limited upgrade budget and was wondering what path would give me the best performance.
My current rig is:
p4 (s478)
DDR1
X1950XT agp.
I was thinking about upgrading to either:
S478 Asrock mobo with PCIE
Using my DDR1 (for now)
and a nice shinny new hd3870x2 (when they come out)
or......
S775 mobo with AGP and PCIE
Q6600
Buy some cheap DDR2
Use my X1950XT AGP
I know the new S775 mobo with PCIE & AGP would be better in the long run but would a hd3870x2 give me more performance on a 3.7 northy than an x1950xt on a q6600 ? I could then get a nice mobo and chip about easter time.
