I would like to thank and affirm all who are involveed in this glorious enterprise (Civilization.) I purchased Civilization III about a year ago soon after I obtained Civilization IV. I am 47 years old, in my youth I was addicted to stratigic war games and traveled the country to engage in the real sport of kings (WAR.) So, as one could easily imagine when I saw these games for the first time I was in heaven.
Then came "Hell", for I am not in any way shape or form a computer guru. I am however able to read, follow directions, and push a button so I am always able to figure out how to eventually get accomplished what I need to get done via a P.C. But my particular piece of "Hell" is the lag time between turns when my games get involved and large (just when they are getting very good.) I have been able to deduce that the problem is due to the size of my cpu. I have a Amd 1800 + with a Raedon x1300 series video card with 512 ram my system model is ms-6380.
My question to you fine, learnered, gentleman is there a cpu I can purchase to keep my beloved computer that has survived all the upgrades (3 power supplies, one mother board, 3 graphic cards, 1 sound card, 3 hard drives, 2 cd roms, and 1 Dvd addition) that I have put it through or have I maxed out what I can do as far as upgrades?
