[Solved] Getting an Upgrade

Getting an Upgrade

Hey Guys, I'm replacing some of my PC parts tell me what should be replaced
My Specs :
Processor : Dual Core E6600 @ 3Ghz
Ram : DDR3 2GB
Video Card : Nvidia GeForce GT520 3GB Memory

Yeah this thing is old as Hell. Been running this thing since 2005
Just tell me what parts could run games such as BF3 in Average Quality (Need to be Cheap as Crap here)

If you want to run games such as BF3 in average performance and quality, start by looking at the minimum requirements of those types of games and work from them and find parts in your budget.

@iverson954360 don't you have a build posted somewhere?

Get a new Videocard...
GT 520 Sucks for battlefield , i can get only about 25-30Fps on low settings (Overclocked)

Should get a HD 6770 or GT 450 (or better)

get a new CPU + GPU?
an intel cpu which i've heard about is the i3 2100/2120... on the other hand, the counterpart for the intel version, is the AMD Phenom II X4

if you have enough money get phenom x6 1055 more ddr3 ram gtx 560 a 530wat psu

Replace all the parts. They are all really bad if you wanna use other programs than word and a browser.

^ this. There's not much room for expansion on a build that's based on C2D, you're best off completely trashing any ideas of upgrading this PC and just getting a new one. Ideally you'll want to look at 6770-6850 grade graphics,perhaps a mid-range Intel or mid/high range AMD CPU and corresponding low/mid-end mobo/chipset.

if you get a gtx 560 you MUST get a quad core cpu or then you will have bottleneck. 6850 it has a nice bandwidth but for gaming is good.

Any LGA 1155 i3 processors will work fine with a GTX 560...

or phenom x6 1055t or more
