So, I'm trying to decently run and have my computer live up well to today's game standards. I can practically run anything - just not-so-smoothly.
My CPU: AMD Athlon Dual-Core 4450B
My Video card: GeForce GT 220
I found some triple core AMD Athlon II series ( http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6620917&CatId=4919 ), I believe it was for about $70.
I also did some searching and found some decent Video cards with 2 gigs of memory as opposed to my 1. (Also, what exactly, besides the actual memory size, should I look for in video cards?
If I had to only choose one to upgrade, which should I go for? I'm only going with one for now (I know I should do both) because I just don't have the money required for both right now.
