Hey guys, I normally am in the Games forum but I was advised to go to this forum for help.

I Play Counter-Strike : Condition Zero alot and I have Low FPS, (Frames Per Second) I only get 24 FPS Max. I have about $100 to get more RAM or a Graphics Card. Currently I have 224 MB RAM and a Uni-Chrome IGP Graphics Card. So do I get RAM or a Graphics Card?

Can anyone help?

Need a little more info: The motherboard, graphics card, and processor you have? Add what kind or RAM to that. If you don't know what you have you can use Everest Home Edition.

I get huge fps drops in CS 1.6 and CZ in widely open areas, but other than that its at a constant 100. I mainly play cs_assault, and I usually see it drop to 30-40 in the large areas.

Which is funny because I have a 6800 gt and a gig of ram too, go 2.8 ghz processor.
