PC Upgrade

[BillDickson]

I have £400 to £450 to spend on a CPU, Motherboard, Memory & Graphics card. What would you guys recommend

First off, Is that close to 700 US dollars?:) I just used a converter and I want to make sure. But back to the topic:

The first thing you will need is a motherboard. Head on over to newegg.com, if they support Europe. I don't know to much about motherboards, so I hope someone can come along and help out in that subject:)


For memory, It depends on how much your system can take. Head on over to crucial.com for a system check. They have the cheapest memory that Ive ever come accross.

Graphics card. It depends on what kind of slot you have. PCI, PCI-E(express), AGP, etc.

I have just today bought a new rig Q6600 processor 3gb ram and GT8800 512mb video card

The only possible down side is that th OS is Vista. How does this work with MSTS,do I need other patches apart from the latest bin patch.

I will appreciate any comments

Thanks

Well, Ive seen a whole lot of topics on vista. Go to the MSTS section and search "vista" or just scan the threads. 3 gigs of ram is plenty for msts. I don't think you will have any problems. Head on over there and check it out:)
