    need help on upgrading...

    a p4 1.3 gighz
    256 rd ram
    40 gb hard drive
    win xp pro
    geforce 2 gts ( 70 fps in cs)


    What do i need to take full advantage of the newer games like warcraft 3 it looks nice on my geforce 2. Right now i have close to 100$ any minor upgrades i can do there?

    then around xmas time im gonna ask for a new vid card like the best one? that sound good.

    by the way any way to tweak my fps in cs any higher i already turned off v-sync.

    Welcome to Sharky Forums

    >ram is ok?

    256mb on XP is the minimum but is usually enough for most applications.
    I also recommend upgrading your vid card -- check out a GeForce 4 at www.newegg.com.
