If your pc only has agp, its time to get a new computer.

1680x 1050
Med settings (can run on high, but heat becomes a problem)

Win Xp
4g ram
intel Q6600 quad 2.x ghz
evga 8800 gts\
----
Don't have fraps, don't care what the fps is. Its smooth with no chop even at 200/200 zerg fights

Take a quick look at the graphics tab too, though the amount of socket 478 boards with PCIe is extremely extremely small.

Sol you have one of the older P4 cpus. Personally I wouldn't waste any money trying to upgrade it. You need to start from scratch with a newer system.

i guess ill get the second one. the first one just looks ridiculous. thats one thing i hate about "gamer" computers. the manufacturers feel lik they need to make it "cool" so it just comes out looking retarded, tacky and designed for a 12yr old.

lol, I expected a bit more information. The slot you have depends entirely on your motherboard. You could just chance it and go AGP (most likely you'll be ok), but I would try to research on the motherboard a bit more. Alternatively, you could just open your case, and see what slot it is

A PCIe looks different from an AGP slot

So I think I'm going to get the Alienware m11x; is the 256GB SSD upgrade worth it over a 250GB 7200rpm HDD for $500 USD? As in, how much of a performance increase can one expect with SSD, and would it make up for the weaker Intel Core Duo SU7300?

In game there is no change in having an SSD. It only affects loading time.

I'm using an SSD and if I time when I dclick the Starcraft 2 Icon until it is fully loaded (so I can login), it takes around 5 seconds (including the time it takes to initiate the game, not just the loading bar). Compare that to what-ever loading speed you have now.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.
