Question : Problem: What do I need to make my computer rum faster?

I don't know much about computers, but I have an IBM Bentium 133 with 16M Ram, 2GB Hard Drive, 4xCD ROM, 16-Bit Sound, 56k PCI Modem, and 1M Video.  It runs so PAINFULLY slow! ESPECIALLY ON THE INTERNET.  What can I do to improve performance?  IS there anything I can do myself?

Nice and simple........
go out there and start peicing one together....


*Motherboard/Processor
     -INTEL-
Although it scores high in the reviews..they are overpriced.. Blah!

     -AMD-
YES!!! Go for it.. get yourself an AMDk6-2 500mhz.. they're under a hundred bucks! and if you want a goodmotherboard... I LOVE ASUS...
www.asus.com
that's also under a hundred..
(btw.... i'd get one without onboard video or audio..... then you have more freedom)

*RAM
Depending on the motherboard you get...get 133sdram or 100.....
133 is much betta~!...
size? 64 should do for the standard user...

*Video card
3d all the way!! =)
graphics are something that are really awesome to show off...
personally i think a video card is probably one of the most important investments besides the processor...
*NICE*
TNT2
voodoo3
*AWESOME*
voodoo-5..
GeForce 1 or 2...

*Harddrive
  udma.. +++
   SCSI ++++++++++++
so.. in other words.. get what you can afford

Modem
56k NON winmodem

Sound card
Gamer? get  a Vortex!!
or.. a SBlive

cdrom-
32x+ will be cool
cdrw2x and up is good
DVD drive is sweet....

floppy-

Extras..
GET A TV card..
wintv is probably one of the coolest tuners out there.. you can watch TV and chat? YES~
