Server Problems Since 10/5/2010

I've been having some bad problems since the 10/5/2010 patch. I'm not sure what they did aside from the patch notes, but I've been laggy and rubberbanding waaaaaay more than usual. Its near unplayable at times.

This leads me to say.. I need to upgrade my computer. It hasn't been touched since 4 years ago when I built it.

Right now its running with the AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+ at 2.01 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, and the NVidia GeForce 7900 GS.

I hate looking up the hardware because I get so tempted to buy a whole bunch of stuff I can't afford right now. I'm probably going to spend $100 on getting better RAM and probably put the old RAM into my other comp (so it would be able to play Sims 2). If you have any other suggestions on a single cost effective upgrade, do tell.

At the very least, since my gaming computer is also my work computer, that I can write this off as a business expense.

In other (game related) news.. they finally posted up the Issue 19 Overview. It looks pretty neat so far. Hopefully it will be out by the end of this year. Also... Reactivation Weekend starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday. I'll only get 1.5 days to play since I have one of my best friend's wedding this weekend. I'm only excited about it because my brother's account will be reactivated, and now that I have a bunch of characters that can run at +2x8 settings, I will be spending most of my time in AE getting myself powerleveled. The way I'm going to do it is get my characters in a level pact with my brother's character, log on to my main farmer and level up my brother's character. That way, I make inf/recipes/salvage on my farmer, my brother gets his character leveled up, and so will I.... its a win-win-win!
