i am not a die hard Intel fan. i just like it. if it's decent and better than Intel and within budget, and has a promising future for upgrading for better performance, i don't mind buying amd.
and why is that? i don't understand! is it going to affect my PC in some way?:-? and for the record, i wasn't only going to upgrade my CPU, but the motherboard too. only i wold have done it later and one by one.
p.s. thanks for the suggestion.
i seldom run maya. i only run it like a few hours per week.
i did mention buying ram now. if you're talking about buying it with the current rig, i did consider it. just never got to do it. i was lazy and i didn't have the time with school and all.:zzz: "I'll do it tomorrow" was my worst...

i am a newbie. i don't really have the knowledge or experience needed to start a thread of hardware discussion. but when i bought my PC a few years ago, i bought a Intel core 2 duo 7300 2.66gh CPU and a gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L motherboard on shops suggestion. however, after i bought that someone...
i am a little tight on budget, but my pc(gigabyte ga-g31m-s2l, intel c2d 7300 2.66gh, zion 800 1gb, seagate 160gb sata) which is 5-6 years old started malfunctioning. that's why i am thinking of a update right now. i originally planned on waiting a few more months to increase my budget. but i...
