Hello all.
Hope you guys can help me, im trying to upgrade my computer. I bought it last year and i think its time to upgrade =P.
specs (on the paper that came with it)
EVGA NFORCE 680I SLI MB REV D Motherboard
WFD, INTEL E8200 CPU,2.66/1333.6m,2C Processor
2gib memory (already bought better memory)
Seagate HDD 250GB SATA 7200 RPM 16mb systemd rive
Nvidia GEFORCE 8800GT 512 MB PCI-E Rev 1
Now i dont know wth those things are. heck, the only experience i have with computers is upgrading memory and software upgrades.
Heres my thing, im playing sims 3 on 1680x1050 but, i cant play it all the way, i have to turn draw distance to low (which makes it feel like sims 2) what exactly should i upgrade so i can run the game better?
Better video card? if so what should i get? (i googled but it was a bit confusing =P)
Thanks all
edit: budget is $250-$300 USD
