Before I do any upgrading, I gotta build my brothers a computer. Before I build them a computer, I gotta get money. :shrug:

But I'll prolly be upgrading to some of the hardware listed in my upcoming article ;)

Did you get that for wholesale? That video card ALONE costs $300, and I didn't that they made a 128mb version of the GF3.

OK I ran some benchmarks with the new stuff I got... still trying new drivers,
my old 3dmark 2001se score was 3024 with the geforce2mx.. BIG difference! :D
as far as the video card goes... A geforce3 Ti 500 is clocked at 220\500... so I beat that with my card:)
