So my PC is almost 4 years old right now. Just came to the conclusion my graphical card can barely run BF 3. First game that's really going to push it to it's limits, and I don't like it
I know BF3 is a very high requiring game, but I still want to be on the safe side and I'm thinking of upgrading my PC (mainly GPU and maybe CPU, if you guys deem it worthy?)
This is my current rig:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2,4GHz)
CPU cooler: Arctic Freezer 7 Pro
2 x HDD: Samsung Spinpoint 500 GB (7200RPM)
GPU: ASUS EN8800GTS 512MB DDR3
RAM: 2x2048MB Corsair DDR2
Motherboard: ASUS P5E
Screen: Samsung SyncMaster 2253BW (22inch)
PSU: OCZ GameXstream 700W
I think the only things that may need to be upgraded are the GPU and maybe the CPU. To play the newest games I think the GPU is by far the most important thing, I can go another 3 years with the CPU.
My budget is around 250 euros, so it leaves some space. And how much could I perhaps get for my GPU?
