What should I upgrade?

I've been reading all over the net, and I've found out my PC is a bit out of date. Guessing I need to make some improvements... (I'm a noob when it comes to PC hardware..)

current specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 @ 2.93 GHz
4gig ram SATA
DDR2 Motherboard
Intel GMA G33/G35
Trendsonic 600 W PSU

---------------------------------
Already planning to upgrade my GPU to an HD 6770 or 6850.

your specs upgrade goes together for your mobo, proci, ug RAm. if naa naka budget for those three, lahosa nah. if wala pa.. sugdi sa imu PSU..heheh..

or sell your Rig then add cash for better specs.

[fern-pewee]

upgrade the entire thing

If I just upgrade my GPU, can I still play new games like Battlefield 3 and Skyrim?

[Sempron Guy]

yes you still can, but not on the performance you are expecting for the card since most likely you're card will be dragged by the cpu

[Archfear]

True.... imong new vcard mabira paubos ang performance kay mag agad sa speed sa imong cpu....

We have almost similar rig bro but with games like that, dili ka ma.satisfied kung gpu lang ang imo i.upgrade.

Prior to upgrading to a 6850, get a decent PSU first. And yes, your processor might drag any video card no less than a hd6750/hd5750 or gts450. BUT, to be able to match the gfx power of an hd6770 or even a 6850, you can overclock your processor to 11x333mhz = 3.667ghz (or even more if you're feeling brave ). This should be a walk in the park and definitely worry-free since 1333fsb should be native to your board. There might even be no need to up the vcore.

Naa ba diay clock/voltage/timing options imong board?

Or Sell the whole thing (except your HDD) and get an i3 + 6850 build..

and dont forget to get a true rated PSU..
