In this video I continue upgrading my Windows XP gaming rig and will replace the ATI Radeon X1650 Pro with the Radeon HD3650. I try to make some improvements and run some benchmarks. Let's see if the upgrade was worth it.

Found this old and beautiful mainboard. It had a water damage and I didn't know if it is working. In this video I test it, remove the rust, add an external battery and use XT-IDE to boot from CF card.
