Recommended upgrade for my pc

Post by I cant spell u »

Right now I have an AMD sempron 2.0ghz processor
A GeForce 6200 AGP8x
and 1 gig of ddr ram.

My mobo supports socket A processors, so I can't really upgrade my processor to anything above 2.2ghz, I was thinking of upgrading my video card to this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814130100

until I can get the money to build a decent pc.

The game runs at about 15-20 fps, would I get a significant fps boost by upgrading the video card or is it the processor that's keeping me down?

Another gig of RAM and maybe a 6800 or one of the 7 series if you can find one.

You would be better off just droppin a few quid on a new AM2 Mobo and ging for a very low end Processor. It makes sense...

How much you got to play with? :)
