    Double the ram and you can have some fun with this machine. But you will REALLY need some more ram. I would not be surprised if the video memory was shared, meaning it would run 3d games with only 200 megs free.... That bellow min. spec for MOST 3d games coming out now.

     

    But it HAS a AGP slot, which is good since the Geforce2 chipset is about 5 years old. With no T&L i think (not sure though). But if the need arise in the near future you can upgrade to a geforce 4 for a hundred bucks or so.

    You can get a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 for about $80 now. ;)  Full DirectX 9 support.

    I don`t know much about caches.

     

    But yes you'll have enough ram.

    And yes you can upgrade your graphic if you have a AGP slot.

  • SerienSerien Member CommonPosts: 8,460

    well once i get it, after a few months, i am gonna go to cheapguys computers, and ask if i buy a new motherboard with a new cpu form them, if they will install it.
