Hey techspot community!
I currently have a 2 year old PC and wondered if I the PC was viable for an upgrade as I play alot of computer games.
My current games are League of Legends, which runes fine on it and Guild Wars 2, which gives me so many FPS issues in World vs World fights and siege's.
I was told my a friend that since my computer hardware is integrated, I will not be able to upgrade certain things. For example, my motherboard, ive been told Pegatron is a bad default integrated motherboard and not really good for gaming. Also my PC does overheat a little but usually its fine,
My computer is Hawlett-Packard p6-2071ukWhich I bought just under 2 years ago, the specifications are the following;
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit SP1
CPU: AMD A8-3800 (Quad-core) Llano 32nm Technology
RAM: 8.00GB DDR3 @ 624MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard: PEGATRON CORPORATION 2ACF (P0)
Graphics: HP 2311 (1920x1080@60Hz)
2048MB AMD with Radeon HD 6570 @ 2.40GHz
Hard Drives:1863GB Seagate ST2000DL 003-9VT166 SATA Disk Device (SATA)
Optical Drive: hp DVD-RAM GH80N SATA CdRom Device
Audio: Realtek High Definition Audio
The computer is pretty average but as I play games alot, I wanted to upgrade to something abit more better.
Im quite new to graphic cards and what to buy and what to look out for, my current budget is £350.
I dont know whether to change my motherboard and graphics card, or to change my CPU or to do all three. I know its very costly, but I would much prefer to increase the speed of my computer and be able to play high end games on high graphics without lagg issues.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you in advance for any replies!!
P.S - Sorry if this is in the wrong section, im a little confused as im new to this forum.
