my take would be your RAM... 2GB is barely enough these days...

[bim27142]

ayyy bro, kung mag upgrade kag proc nga AM3, i think you'll need a DDR3 RAM... so i guess you'll have to stick to your proc, or look for another AM2+ proc, or uprade your mobo, RAM, proc altogether...

this would be your best bang for the buck upgrade: Amd Phenom II x6 1055t

[bim27142]

i stand corrected... pde diay DDR2 and AM3 proc...

You might still end up disabling the extra cores if going x6, the best would be the cooler and gpu.. gaming ayt?
