    Default System Upgrades?

    Well its the summer and Im getting some money into my account and was wondering if there is anything on my main computer I could upgrade. Help will be appreciated and will +Rep x15 for anyone who gives me decent suggestions and help.

    Processor: AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 5600+ @ 2.9GHz
    Ram: 6GB
    Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 9500GT (1GB)
    Hard Drive: 500GB
    Motherboard: I think this is correct; ASRock L10N78FullHD-hSLI R3.0.
    Edit: PSU: 450W

    If you need anything else or pictures etc. Then ask! :]


    Thanks,

    xoxo

    Seems quite nice. I don't really think you need any upgrades, to be honest. I'd say you should save that money for the future, to build a new beast of a computer at a later date.

    I would go with what Tom said.

    Updating it now would be pointless - as you have a fairly nice build there already. How much of your hard-drive have you used up? As Tom said you would probably be better saving up a bit to build a really good computer in a years time lets say, when technology would have changed. (There might even be another Flight Sim )

    yeah, really looks like you don't need to upgrade.
    you could buy a 1TB drive, if you really wanted to spend.
    but by next year 4TBs will be available and solidstates will cheaper too.

    Is your flight simulator gameplay any laggy or not what you expect. If it is, then you could do with investing in a cheapish graphics card.

    I have the http://www.ebuyer.com/product/153214 Sapphire HD 4650 512MB with 1GB HyperMemory GDDR3 and it works a treat. Great for casual gaming and it's actually not that bad on games like Crysis, I am told.

    No point it's not that much better than what he already has.
