Mr Daxel SuperJawes2112 Mr Daxel Im still trying to figure out how to make my PC games run a little smoother before I have to go out and buy new stuff. Anyways, I just now set up my Steam ID, cause Im tired of ripping off MicroCenter. @ ALL: woohoo responses! @ Dax: I've been regularly looking at stuff here, while planning out a potential gaming PC. On the basics, RAM is good, a fast processor is good, and a nice GPU is good xd . Yeah, it's simple, but it's how it is. Find out what your motherboard supports and what you can stick in it before you buy ANYTHING, though. As a general question, would a dual-core make games run faster by allowing all the gaming s**t to run on one core, and all the OS s**t on the other? Im hindering on changing everything, because my brother plans to upgrade this PC from XP to Vista Ultimate. Where trying to keep it cheap, so Im going to go off from the recommendations of TF2 or Spore or something, and see what we can leave in, take out, and replace. Gotcha. If you're going to Vista, you might consider pimping up to 4GB RAM and a 64-bit OS. Memory is pretty cheap right now, so it wouldn't be too much of a cost and would help out a lot in the long run. I would also recommend going with at least a Core 2 Duo processor. A good processor will go a long way. With that in mind, nVidia has plenty of cards that will run TF2 and Spore (assuming) well enough if you need to replace that. The Tech Report is a pretty nice tool for someone who doesn't know what they're doing.

-The Gray Legend- I play Brawl online sometimes, who wants some? I haven't played Call of Duty 4 in a LONG time as I've gotten sick of the foul-mouthed community (oh yeah, I'm one to talk mrgreen ), 8-year-old shreiking voices in the headset and people who think it's an impossibility to get a good ******** internet connection. But I wouldn't mind messing around with chu guys. If I start playing Metal Gear Online any time soon and get accustomed to it, I'll play y'all. Alright, everyone seems to want to play Brawl. But Brawl online sucks. It's laggy, buggy, glitchy crap. Mario Kart, on the other hand, is as smooth as silk. So let's play THAT, people!!!
