Hello guys my CPU is a AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual Core processor 6000+ 2.02GhZ
I bought this computer at mid 2008.
My current graphics card is a Nvidia 9600 GT 1GB.
I was planning to upgrade power supply to a 650w from my current 500w and also upgrade graphics card today to a GeForce GTX 460 FPB 1gb card.
I only have about $220 bucks to spend on upgrades for my computer and the power supply and card I am planning to get basically exhaust that budget.
I also have 4 GB of DDR2 ram.
I am trying to play some games such as (Aion, Star wars the old republic) on max settings but I can't seem to run the game at max without getting some lag and a FPS of about 12-15 on both games.
I was wondering if making the graphic card upgrade would allow me to run these games comfortably or would my CPU end up screwing me anyways?
I really don't have the means to buy an entire new computer system so I am trying to upgrade this one to make games (at least mmorpg games) run smooth on the high settings.
Please let me know what you think. I would appreciate quick replies because the sale on the Graphics card I want to get will end tonight at 11:59pm.
Thank you.
