Sweet! Thanks for the fast replies.

 I think I'm gonna go with a 4200 X2 - I can get one for about 1000 Y = $131. More pricey than the states, but you know the Chiense gov, taxes all PC related products. 

 Thanks all, I'll let you know how it goes.

This is my first post here, so Hello everyone.

 

I'm an American living in China. I teach oral English (so don't harp on me for my grammar mistakes! :p)

Anyway, I bought a cheap gaming rig here a few months ago. It runs everything ok. Here are my specs.

 

Gigabyte GA-M51GM-S2G - Crappy motherboard, but I don't speak Chinese, so I didn't know that it was a Micro-atx. I was upset.

AMD AM2 3200+

1 Gig 667mhz ram

80 gig SATA HDD

Onboard sound = my 1 PCI slot is covered by my sound card.

7900GS 256mb

 

My questions is this. Should I upgrade my CPU first or my GPU first? I can get any CPU or GPU over here, albeit a little more expensive than the American price. I'm into Supreme Commander, G.R.A.W, Oblivion, and COE right now. I'm playing on a 19" LCD. 1440x900 rez.

 

Thanks in advanced.
