If this is the wrong area to ask this kind of question in then my apologies. However i dont know of a more appropriate place.
Basically my friend is thinking of playing the game Darkfall but he doesnt think he can run the game. So he is going to buy a new graphics card, and a new power supply to run the better Graphics card (Probably).
So this is what his current specs are:
Windows Vista Home premium
Intel Core2 Duo CPU E4400 @ 2.00GHz (I know its a bit slow but he cant afford a new processor atm)
2 GB of DDR2 667Mhz RAM
ATI Radeon X1050 128MB (Needs upgrading, Best to stick with ATI?)
300 Watt PSU
intel desktop board d945gcnl
Ok so those are the specs of his system, obviously not the best, but he actually runs many games not too badly.
Ok so these are the two items he is thinking of buying, the site is in AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS so please remember that and please do not post links to New egg or other US sites because he would like to buy from an Australian provider.
Ok hes now decided to potentially buy a new mother board so that he can later upgrade RAM as his currant only has 2 ram slots and (I think) only supports up to 667Mhz RAM modules.
Will This mother board work with his currant processor? "Intel Core2 Duo CPU E4400 @ 2.00GHz"
Again thx, and if anyone could find the time to help me out with the above questions and this one, I would appreciate a lot.
EDIT: And ofcourse as with the question above, If anyone can find a better choice for price within the site; www.itestate.com.au Then please let me know. However he does not want to spend more than $350 on the GFX card and PSU and no more than about $180 on the Motherboard. Thanks
