Hi everyone. Need some advice.
I have an old gaming pc with a Foxconn A6VMX motherboard, 3GB ddr2,
Athlon 64 X2 6000+ (3.0GHz) cpu and a old geforce 6200. Well it needs an upgrade.
I was planing on putting in a Geforce GTX 750 1GB but was told that as my CPU is old and that it would bottleneck my GPU. now i dont know much about that as all i want to play is DayZ. So I looked online and other ppl have said that if I upgrade my BIOS i should be able to upgrade tth CPU to a AMD Phenom X4 9850. But is that the best CPU for this board and do i need to install all 6 of the different BIOS upgrades? Also will i need a new heatsink? Sorry, so many questions but im on a very tight budget and i dont want to get this wrong. Im hoping that I can get away with just getting the new Graphics Card.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer me.
