Hey guys so i want to upgrade my computer cause i play mmos and right now im playin the new star wars (swtor) and i lsg sometimes with all settings on low. My current computer is a gateway gm5474 its not stock ive done some uogrades. My current specs are
Motherboard-geforce 6150se
Processor-amd64x2 6800 3ghz (was the 2nd gen of dual cores)
Ram-4gb ddr2 667mhz
Video card- nvidia 450gts 1gb
Hard drive- 500gb sata ll 7200 rp
Power supply-500watt antech
So ive got 2 ideas ive been brainstorming since im not trying to spend a lot of money.
1. Buy a new processor and motherboard that is compatible with all my other hardware and just use my gateway case if possible not sure if i can do any of that. Help would be greatly appreciated.
2.buy new processor, motherboard, ram, and case. Use my old hard drive and power supply. Would that even work? If that works then use a spare hard drive and power supply i have and put in my current system and then sell it to recoop some of the extra money i soent on case, and ram and what not.
So all the help i could get would be greatly appreciated.
