Hi
I prefer to call myself as a casual gamer but when i play games it matters to me that game should run atleast at mid settings if not high. Recently i tried to play Assassins Creed and it runs at 5-10 FPS at mid settings. So i was wondering what would be the culprit.
I have following configuration :
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (OCed to 2.2GHz)
Asus A8N-VM Mobo
Nvidia 6600GT PCI Graphics card
1 GB DDR 400 RAM
160GB Sata
I did test for same game on http://www.systemrequirementslab.com and it pointed out that my processor is the cause of my incompatibility with the game. Is this right ? If yes , i m going to upgrade my cpu only (socket 939) as i dont have much budget and i wont be having enough money for next 2 years ( i m a student ) so i cant upgrade to new AM2 and motherboard combo.
Which processor would be good for me (provided i m a gamer) ? My budget is around $100 , and is it really worth to upgrade only cpu in my case ?

P.S. : I will be away for next 1-2 days..so accept my apology in advance for late reply.
