I want to spend about R3000 on my upgrade.I use my PC for gaming.I can only play Crysis on low detail.I think of upgrading my GFX card but I'm not sure.What do you think would be the best to upgrade for my PC?
:confused:
 
Yup, get another gig of RAM : pcint.co.za has Hynix RAM for R193 per stick, and they're just as good as the Kingston sticks if you're not gonna overclock.

Secondly : 8800GT
 
Ya would also guess P4... He could have OC'd it, but doesn't seem likely...

@OP
As the others have said, gfx and ram. Get an 8800GT and a gig of RAM and you're set to go.

When your next upgrade urge comes along, upgrade your CPU to some Quad core goodness, and maybe upgrade your mobo to something more OC friendly.
I've heard Intel mobos (the actual mobo - not just the chipset) aren't to good at overclocking - am I right?
