Yar. Me computer be looking for upgrades.

First, yes. I do know that I have two completely competent (to elegantly put it) computers in addition. But I want to make »the one that I actually use more sufficient. Ideas to make her faster on the cheap (I'm looking to spend less than $400). I was thinking about buying a top of the line GeForce 4 used or perhaps a mid-range GeForce FX. I beleive the CPU is fine for now (tell me how wrong I am), and I know I need more RAM (I'm thinking about picking up a 2048 setup for it).

Why do you use that one? You have two better systems ...

That being said, I would bother upgrading anything except maybe the video card.

Something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814131427

Looks spiffy. I shall have to refrain from getting a graphics card for my comp since im not the only one using it. I will be the one to blame for ANY future problems with the computer, even if they are unrelated problems.

Wait a minute. How the HELL do you have a socket A mobo and a P4E? Post what your ACTUAL mobo is then I'll help ya out. Depends on whether or not it has PCI-E.

BTW, I would suggest new mobo/PCI-E if it doesn't have PCI-E. You don't need ram unless you're playing BF2.
