Hey guys!

So serveral weeks ago my graphics card decided to die and I am now stuck with this onboard crap one

well here is the deal, I bought my PC 3 years ago and I upgraded it a bit.
It has a Foxcon Motherboard with is kinda weak so I will be replacing this.
My CPU is an Intel 1.6 GHz Core 2 duo overclocked to 2 GHz.
And my graphics card was a Nvidia GeForce 8600GT.
2 GB or DDR2 RAM
Running on windows XP 32bit (But I will have windows 7 at the time)
I will probebly be spending around €200,-
But I might be able to invest more, since I am in no hurry.

So I want to buy a new graphics card, a new motherboard, and a new CPU.

What I want to do with it is play 'up to date' games, such as MW2, Black Ops, and maybe some Borderlands, Fallout, Prototype, such games

I started looking around and there is just too much to chose from. It's just confusing to me

I am not a super computer noob but still a noob lol.

Thanks for reading this and any help or opinions would be usefull!
Cheers!

graphics card: hd 5670 most likely
processor: athlon tri core rana or dual core callisto
motherboard: any motherboard thats am2/am2+/am3 socket so it'll support your DDR2 ram.

What site are you planning to buy from?
Whats your power supply?

If you can wait for more funds, it might be a good idea to get an HD 5770 instead and maybe upgrade your powersupply

Will be checking my power supply,
I currently have no site in mind, is there one oyu would suggest?

HBut thanks for the quick response!

I think you need a better processor. I've noticed a lot of people having issues with the game due to their processor lacking.

Your graphics card meets the minimum recommended specs.

Pick a site you feel comfortable buying from

And canadian_man, I'm sure onboard graphics can play borderlands and blops...

Ave you even read the post?

Any more opinions?

5770, Rana, AM3 mobo, and new DDR3 RAM


or spend more and just buy a new computer

I think that is over my budget, but I'll check them out,
thanks mate!

hard to say, thats about $300 USD
