I am currently running v99.5 on a P4 2.53ghz (533 bus) with 1 gig mem ddr266, PNY GeForce 6200 AGP, Vbox Cats-Eye DTA-150.

I have been having a few issues with the processor running high during some HD recording/playback and the audio drops out several times along with a little video stutter.

What would be the most productive upgrade. A Newer AGP Video card (6600 or 7300...7600 is too much $$$) or going to 2.8ghz (800 bus). I want to get the HD stuff a little better without spending a bunch of money. I am looking to go to an AMD PCIE system hopefully soon, so no sense going crazy with this system I currently have.
