Hi,
I wanna upgrade my Pc :
amd x2 3600+
1 Gb trancend Ram (533)
xfx 7600GS (256 MB)
Asus MN2PV mobo

My budget is around RS 4500- 5000. What will be the best way to spend my limited resource- another RAM or X2 4400+ or another Gpu for SLI. FYI im in delhi so if u guys could help me using the current market price of delhi (nehru place) it would be very helpful. Thank u.

i'd suggest another one or two gb of ram .the thought of 8600 came to my mind but its slightly above ur budget and it aint that a a great performer . well i cant decide between the two .

i;d suggest u sell ur present ram card and go gor 2x1gb ram cards 667MHz if u mobo supports it. that way they'll run in dual channel mode which significantly improves performance. again, check if ur mobo supports dc

Anyways .. i'd suggest u to sells the 7600GS , and get a 8600GT ..
