Well , my parents havent money to upgrade my pc there are lots reasons for this : we need to pay credit for a car , my mom is waiting for second baby ............ So i' ve collected near to 100$ dollars ( my dad can add some more ). Its isnt much so i need to upgrade something one . My question is - What i need to upgrade to have more fps at cortex ? RAM or videocard or Processor ?

I'd say get the fastest CPU you can afford. I don't think CC is multithreaded so you wont have to worry about getting a quad-core or anything. Unless you have like 512MB RAM you should be all right. How about posting your current PC specs?

k, a few things.

Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600) , you can get servicepack3 from micosoft update (last time i checked) that helps

another thing is ,you got
Code:
Module 1   DDR, PC3200 (200 MHz), 512 MBytes, unknown brand
Module 2   DDR, PC2700 (166 MHz), 256 MBytes, unknown brand


one is pc3200 and the other is pc2700 , if you can find a 512 stick of pc3200 , and change it with the pc2700 . will make your computer alot faster, and it shouldnt cost more then 20 or so dollars to get some.

thats about all you can really do, since any major upgrades you would have to get a new motherbored , cpu, ram .. and most likely a new power unit.

Too bad Newegg doesn't ship to his country. Not everyone is from the US, genius.

I don't see why he doesn't just buy an old soviet supercomputer. These days they've got to be what, ten bucks in ex-USSR territories?

Yeah, but all the vaccuum tubes are probably broken.
