Video card good, processor bad
I finallh got my Radeon 9000 in the mail and it rocks. It runs games that I could never play before. The only thing is is that the games are choppy cause my processor is a piece of junk. This sucks @$$. I need more money.
John 3:16-17
16-For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, so that anyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.
17-Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

If you resort to overclocking, make sure you have a good CPU fan, efficient airflow through and around the case and that you have high-quality memory.
You might check with your motherboard manufacturer and see what the maximum clock speed it will support and just buy a new processor. Athlon XP 2400+ chips are running for about $100 now.
