Hi all,
I'm currently using my relatively old desktop which has these specs :
Core 2 Quad Q9300 @2.5Ghz (never OC'd)
HD 3850 256mb
4 GB RAM
I wanted to know how can I upgrade this so I can play all games at 1080p resolution or scaling x4 to be more accurate.
I don't have a large budget so I want to know what do I have to change,especially the graphic card,I'm thinking about changing it for a used HD 4870,is it enough for 1080p ? I especially want to play Dragon Quest VIII at scale x4 (that's my goal overall)
And about the CPU,do I have to change it or do I just OC it ?
Please help me out ^^"
