Need help for a friends CPU so we can play TOR.

[Pete Jones]

My friend and I are in the beta for SW:Tor, we thought his CPU was good enough to run it but it is not.
He has a AMD Phenom 9150e processor with a Gateway RS780 mb.

The requirements for TOR:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4000+ or better 2.0Ghz

I only post his CPU because everything else is okay. I am looking for suggestions of a processor that is compatible with the Gateway RS780 motherboard. Any input is appreciated, thank you.

Um, that processor is a quad-core. How can it not be enough? The .2 Ghz isn't going to make that much of a difference, maybe a few FPS, but otherwise it should be fine. Have you tried to run the game? What kind of frames is the game getting?
