Hello, my budget is atleast $250 USD
I'm very new to this and I bought a computer on black friday but I didn't know it was this bad in gaming haha. Well, I don't know what to buy to upgrade this computer and I can just go to BestBuy to get it installed. What should I upgrade to make it faster for gaming? Everything else is good except for gaming. I'm not going to be playing BF4 and I just wanna play some fun games on steam.
Well, please help me what should I buy and I don't understand what I'm supposed to be upgrading, is it the Processor or Graphics Card? I was thinking about the core i5 but I don't know if that's the only thing I need? Sorry about the noobiness, please help. THANK YOU!
Will any good thing fit into this computer to improve gaming? I want to record and make vids.
