I'm running an off the shelf HP Pavilion quad core (2.4 GHz) with an older Radeon 1300 PCI-X. I have 3 G RAM.
Most games don't perform very well. I read the FAQ about the minimum being an 8600GT with 3.2GHz dual core.
The only thing I can reasonably upgrade is the video card. I can pick an 8600GT for < $50 at various places.
If I spend the $50, how likely will I have a machine capable of playing MGS 3 snake eater? Or, should I scrap the idea all together and save up for a new rig?
Thanks...
