Hello,
My current system is to low to play Natural Selection 2 with accurate FPS, even with all details off.
My System looks like:
AMD athlon 64 X2 e4850 (2x2.5 GHz)
4 GByte DDR2 RAM
ATI HD 5700
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H Motherboard (for AMD AM2+ Phenom / Athlon 64)
Approximate Purchase Date: this week (the closer the better)
Budget Range: 100-250 Euro
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Just gaming, I have a notebook for work
Parts to Upgrade: CPU, Graphic Card. Maybe RAM (still think 4GByte are enough for a single game?!).
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: amazon.de
Overclocking: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
NS2 FPS ~30 and <20 by action.
What is the better choice, upgrade or a complete new System?
I'm not up to date to Hardware for more than 3 or 4 years.
If upgrading:
I thought about a new CPU - Phenom 2 X4?
Maybe a SSD instead of my HDD, but that would only speed up loading time, not the actual performance, is that right?
Also the 4GByte RAM is not much, but does 1 Game needs more?
All I want is a system which runs NS2 (with or without details - i dont care) performant.
