I want to upgrade my main computer but I am considering putting that off to upgrade my gaming machine especially since most of my gaming is on this one.
My server (main):
x2 Opteron 2212 dual core running at 2.0 gig
4 gig EEC memory per processor
Asus L1n64-SLI WS/B board
7 hard drives 2 of which are 37.5 gig Raptors total 1.5 terabytes
x2 Nvidia 8800 GT cards factory overclocked
Haupauge digital tuner
Blue Ray drive
Since I have so much sunk into this computer I may upgrade it. The only areas would be the video or the processor, neither of which would make a difference.
I am thinking about a complete overhaul of my gaming computer but on my income now it would take a few months.
Do I need 2 high performance machines or should I just stick with the server since it runs all games fine. Even Crysis which is still a standard runs kick ass on this machine but suffers on my outdated gaming machine.
Main thing to remember is that I am on limited income for now.
