Mr. Suitly emphazi Joona Palaste, B.Sc. Helsinki, Finland Group: Super moderators Posts: 4 581 Joined: 26 February 2006	Most of your computers make me really envious... If I could afford it, I would upgrade my processor to at least 3 GHz, my memory to 2 GiB and my hard disk space to 1 TiB, or even almost 2 TiB...

I guess you're using an AMD 64 Sempron 2800+ CPU ? if it's socket 939 grab a cheap X2 3800 Dual Core, or if you're using socket 754 grab a AMD 64 3500+. Also just add another 1GB of ram then you're good to go. You still have a nice amout of HD space. Over 1 TB is mostly for hughe downloading or video editing. I'm still fine with my 120GB and only using around 30GB...but I also only have games on it + some documents, I don't like messy HD's

I honestly don't know what sort of sockets my AMD CPU is on. But I did a test at http://tietoasema.fi and selected some components for my next "dream machine": a 3.0 GHz AMD CPU, 4 GiB of memory, 320 GiB internal HD, 1 TiB external HD, and a CoolerMaster Caviar case. It would cost me 866 €. Not bad, even if it doesn't include a monitor. But I still can't afford it for the next half a year or so.
