What would you suggest I replace the chip with? Something that can run a decent amount of modern games and has a good (lowest) price.
i wouldn't know, your motherboard can be either the old agp or the final pcie edition board, you gotta figure that out first then i can help.

Well, the P4 HT 3 Ghz is circa. 2005  ... that means you might have PCI-Express slots for an add-on card.  Without knowing what the machine is, there's little we can do to help.  Where did you buy it?  Model number?

fakedit: Like Tellemurius said... need more info.

I got it for free from my neighbor who got it from a bankrupt office.

The model is Dell DM051.

I could, but I don't feel like it. This computer is pretty old and I will be getting a new one soon. I've got the stalker games on steam so I'll just play them later. Thanks for all your help guys.

hah. I have a Dell Dimension 5150 with a Pentium 4, and while it has a gfx card, it is a radeon X300. They won't even make drivers for it anymore...

Thats my main computer. I get hand-me-downs and salvaged stuff from the recycling centre.

Doesn't cost anything though...

Bastion is on sale at $7.50, half off the original price. Probably not the worst time to buy it if you haven't already.

Would if my computer could run it. Not enough GFX memory for the demo.

Damn. This comes up right after I bought Killing Floor and L4D2. If this keeps up, I'm going to run out of money fast.

Is Evil Genius more than a Dungeon Keeper remake? It looks interesting, but I've never motivated myself enough to buy it.

I could never get into Dungeon Keeper, but Evil Genius remains the second-best city/base-building game I've ever played (the first being DF, of course). $2.50 for that game is the best bargain I've seen in a while.
