Upgrade recommendations?
I have a moderately ok computer that I want to slowly upgrade as I can afford it. I want to do about 1 piece at a time and am not sure in what order to upgrade components so I can see the most change. I use this right now as a mostly word-processor/internet browser, but would like to see it become a moderate gaming rig.
System Specs:
Computer:
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
OS Service Pack Service Pack 2
Motherboard:
CPU Type AMD Athlon XP, 1154 MHz (11.5 x 100)
Motherboard Name Abit KD7(-RAID) (6 PCI, 1 AGP, 4 DIMM, Audio, LAN)

Yes, I know I have no CD Drive, but its not really a high priority for me right now...
