For the holidays, I'm looking to spend some cash for upgrading my PC setup. I'm a huge fan of Diablo, and with D3 coming out early 2012, I want to have something that will allow me to play it on something higher than minimum. Now, my PC is relatively old, although I have updated a few parts since my original purchase. Considering the cost of upgrading the individual components, I'm wondering if it would actually be more cost effective to buy a whole new rig (either build myself or preferably pre-built).
OS Version: Windows XP 32
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 @ 2.02GHz
RAM: 2GB
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
Motherboard: Gigabyte MA780G-UD3H
Power supply: NZXT 500w
Looking at this setup, does it make more sense to start from scratch? If you had to prioritize what I upgrade, which would it be? If starting from scratch, I'd rather purchase something prebuilt - what companies are the best value?
Thanks!
