Hello, I am looking forward to upgrade my PC because it does not give the performance i want in many games.
My current specs are-
AMD Athlon X2 250 3.0 GHz
nVidia GeForce 8400GS 1GB
4 GB ram
500 GB Hard Disk
Asus Motherboard

Please advise. I dont plan to buy a Monitor, mouse or keyboard.
Thanks
Aditya Desai

no ram isn't really sufficient for gaming need 8 gb really, do you have 2 modules or 1, if you have 2 gonna need to get rid of it and get new stuff, if you have 1 just get another stick of the same stuff. as for the GPU where do you buy parts, then I can find a nice one for you :D

i have 2 modules of 2gb each
actually i dont regularly buy parts so i have no idea but there is an online site www.flipkart.com but the rate is in INR
so to save you the math, just advise me which one to buy and i'll tell if they are available in here. is the processor enough too?? cause its just 2 cores.

processor could probably be upgraded but doing so would probably change your mobo to Intel which complicates, depends if you have the money or time to go through with it. as for GPU a Nvidia GTX 760 is a nice but cheap GPU

nvidia gtx 760, how much does it cost in $ ??
cause my budget is utmost 600$
and a intel processor or amd?? is AMD FX 8350 any good? it has got 8 cores and is priced reasonably low

yeah thats an OK CPU, as for 760 here in AU it is about $300 so cheaper where you are probably. well Under your budget, you could probably afford a 780 which is about 600 ish, ok going to sleep so no more answers for a while
