Thanks for the reply ragecgi! This is just what i needed to know. (not what i wanted to hear though haha). Problem is my motherboard is rather outdated, so upgrading my cpu, means upgrading my motherboard and possibly my graphics card. Don't know what i will do now..., but i will defenitely check out that article. It is an alternative. I'm not that good with computers though. Well, i'll see. Thanks a lot for the info. tiz
