Upgrading help
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hello guys!
For a few months i've been following this website and the forums. I'm very curious about computers and their hardware.
Anyhow getting to the point, i would like to know if i can upgrade my computer's graphic card.
I understand a little about the cpu and ram but when it comes to graphic cards i really know nothing. To give some insight into my system, here is what i gathered by using CPU-Z:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 3.06 ghz
Motherboard: Acer EG43M; Graphic Interface PCI-Express (link width x16 max supported x16)
Memory: DDR3 4gb Dual Channel
Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce 315 512 Mb.
I know that most of the new games will require a stronger cpu, but my main goal right now is to be able to play games like skyrim at high at 30 fps.
I would rather not spend more than 120€, but if there's no other choice I'll have to go with it.
Thank you very much for the time and for the support.

More about : upgrading
Yep. We actually don't need your monitor's size, just the resolution you aim to be playing the game at.
Also, just checking, this isn't a laptop, right?
EDIT: Ninja'ed.
For 1080p (your grandfather's screen), and your budget, I'd hunt around sales looking for a 7770. Newegg has a 7770 GHz edition on sale for $120, but they don't ship outside the US, I don't believe.
