Update or buy new?

[zamwini]

I have to decide to upgrade my computer, or wait until my dad buys a new one. My dad has been hinting that we would get a laptop in the near future for the last year . my computer is from 2004~5 and I have done some upgrades on it.
My current specs-
CPU Speed-2.79 GHz
System RAM- 2.0 GB (used to have 256 ram, upgraded)
Operating System-Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (Build Service Pack 22600)
Video Card-Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller (Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller)
Video Card Features -96 MB,Video Card 3D Acceleration,
Video Card Driver Version- DirectX
Sound Card- SoundMAX Digital Audio
Free Disk Space- 512 MB (my craptastic computer started with 34 gigs.)

I do moderate gaming, such as counter strike source and mabinogi, but plan to continue into bigger things. Any recommended upgrades, or should I wait for a laptop?

Upgrade your video card, Lol at disk space, get 3 GB if RAM if you want if you want to get more into gaming. Your video card really sucks balls though, and get service pack 3 for windows XP.

That really tells us nothing...what kind of CPU and what kind of ram?

You could buy a cheap video card for now, however, your computer might not support pci-e video cards, so you may need to get a agp card.

Laptops = epic fail. I don't believe why people game and actually get laptops. If you get a laptop, say good bye to gaming. Even if it's an extremely good one, they heat up extremely quick. Most people just deny it, but I hope you're smart enough to face teh truth. Laptops = not good for gaming.

laptops are mostly used for work, not for play
