You won't be playing games with a single core CPU. You need a good CPU, graphics card and about 8GB of RAM to have a good gaming experience.

Yeah, chances are a game from 2010 needs at least a dual-core CPU, if not more. You're looking at not only bargain-basement (Sempron name), but those were chips where they disabled one of the onboard cores.

Depending on your motherboard, you might be able to replace the CPU with a Phenom II X4 or even X6 chip, but it depends on the model of motherboard you have. If you're extremely lucky, it's a "Socket AM3/AM3+" board that will take both Phenom II chips & the FX CPUs, because even a 95W chip like the FX-8320e/8370e (or better yet FX-8300) will be loads better than that Sempron you have.

But that's only if you're looking for a quick & easy upgrade for your existing system. Any other kind of upgrade is going to pretty much require a brand-new system.

guys i know newer games wont run well or at all with one core processor the minimum is a dual core i just like to test things. Surprisingly Payday 2 works normaly i get 25 - 55 fps on high settings dependening on map optimization.My mobo supports from phenom 2 x2/x4 up to phenom 2 x6 1055T which i consider is still a powerfull cpu (whats ur opinion or i should you get a 1090T or 1100 to max out games like fallout 4).Is there a significant difference betwen a Phenom II X4 960T and a 945?

No, the primary difference between them is the 960T is a "Thuban harvest" -- i.e. it started off as a hexa-core chip, but 2 of the 6 cores were disabled (either because they were faulty, or because AMD needed a bigger supply of quad-cores) -- so aside from the slightly higher HyperTransport speed (2GHz vs. 1.8GHz) & the 960T's lower TDP they're pretty much identical.

Now, what motherboard do you have? The X6 1055T is at the same tier as the X4 940 & 960T (http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cpu-hierarchy,4312.html), so it would be six of one/half dozen of the other to get the X6 instead of the X4. But if your motherboard can handle the X6 1090T/1100T or X4 975/980, then I would recommend getting one of those instead, as they would bring you up to the same tier as an Intel core i3 (including the Skylake/Kaby Lake versions) or an early core i7.
