Hello. So recently I have considered how to best maximize my computer. I originally bought it in 2009, so my processor is a Intel Core2 Quad Q8200 @ 2.33GHz and I am sitting on 6 gigs of RAM.
Now over the years I have upgraded the power supply (550 w I think), upgraded the graphics card a few times (most recent card is a Nividia 650 TI 2 gig ddr5 ram)
Now the question is, what might the best way to improve performance? There are games that I know for a fact should run at much higher FPS's then they are currently, and I am curious if my older processor is the issue.
Any help will be appreciated. And if one asks for a budget, I am thinking 150-200$ price range if it is the processor I should seek to update next. Thanks!
