Im looking to whip my system into gaming shape. Here are my current specs---
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz
integrated graphics (lol)
4 gb ddr2 ram
300w power supply
The graphics card im sold on atm is the r9 270x, ive heard alot about it and it seems like it would work well for me. But i am wondering if the CPU needs an upgrade for modern gaming, and also wondering if i need to upgrade the mobo, so i can get ddr3 ram. I really dont want to make this investment but if I have to, so be it. Also, i need to buy a new power supply. Will the Seasonic 520w be sufficient? Thanks in advance for the help.
