So I recently stepped up to a dual monitor setup so I can telecommute and had no plans to game on this current setup. Well that plan didn't go too well. I got bored one day and decided to install MW4 and when I went to play the game, I couldn't. The monitor would flicker and the game would crash without even loading. So I figured it's about time I upgrade my hardware since everything in my PC is now relatively dated.
PC specs:
MoBo: ASUS M4A78LT-M LE
VGA: ATI Radeon HD 4670 (1GB I believe)
Power Supply: Cooler Master RS-500-PCAR-A3
HDD: WD 1001fals
RAM: 4GB
Monitors: ASUS VX228 x2
Processor: Intel(R) Core i3 CPU 530 @ 2.93GHz
If I want to run MMORPG or FPS games that demand a lot of resources, which components would you all recommend upgrading? I don't have a huge budget so I'd like to keep costs down as much as possible, but I do understand that I can only do so much given that requirement. For starters, I will be upgrading my RAM to 8GB or maybe even 16GB if my MoBo can handle it.
Thanks in advance for all the help!
