Yeah, no offense blacknight, but your PC is about as powerful as a very low end netbook. And when I say "very low end netbook" I mean similar to an old Windows 98 based PC that's been bludgeoned by an iron baseball bat beyond recognition, blown up and then been outfitted with a CD drive and a power cord. Again, no offense (by the way, this is a PC your thinking of getting, not already have, correct?).

edit: By the way, I used to have a PC like the one I described. The only thing I could get to run on it was "Zoo Tycoon". It was crap, but god, I loved it.

Mate, with 700 bucks you could get a 800-1k power supply, a ATi Radeon 5870, and a Core i5 or Phenom x3 black edition, and a killer motherboard.

Do you really think buying that is the best idea?

Add a gig of ram, a 4670 (or similar), and you'll be able to play most games. I doubt you could get much better GPU without also upgrading the power supply as well...

Wrong, that would be a good netbook, a 6150le is much faster than an intel intergrated gpu.

Exactly my point. I was going to say high end, but I thought saying "Low end" would drive my point through a bit more.

Edit: that's your current rig? Might want to think about upgrading...

Building PC is not difficult at all. Trust me, with a little bit of patience and some help from members on GameSpot, you can build a great PC. The sense of accomplishment when you turn on the power and everything working smoothly is amazing.

Mate, build a new PC, trust me, you won't regret it. To keep it budget only upgrade the actual computer, leave monitor and everything else. Get a phenom dual core, a 4870 and 4GB ram.

Quad core or bust. More and mroe games need quad cores so it will be kinda foolish not to use a quad core cpu if you build a a pc nowadays.

for 100.00 you could be gaming. Find someone spending selling their RAM on Craigslist for 30.00 (i'm sure you can get about 4G of 800ram for that price. Of course, you'll only be able to use 3 of it). Spend the other 70 on a Radeon 4670. Now, you're back in the game.

when you are ready, you can get a new case and power supply, then a new motherboard and CPU. But if you get a new video card and RAM you can upgrade when you are ready financially.

With a video card and ram upgrade it would be fine. I'm not sure why people are carrying on like poop throwing howler monkeys in this thread. A 6150 is junk, but it's much better than the GMA950 in a netbook.

What games require a quad core, other than GTA4 which was a poorly optimized turd? None that I'm aware of.

Also, telling someone to "just build a new PC" isn't very helpful. Most people don't know how, and even if they could figure it out, wouldn't have the dedication to keep it up to date.

I no longer build computers for friends who aren't already pretty knowledgeable about PCs. It ends up being a waste of time. Either they'll be calling me all the time for tech support, or they get frustrated and go back to gaming on consoles.

no, you should build ur own PC from scratch. Its not as hard as it seems. Its actually rly easy. If you dont know where to start we can help you. You can get an extremely good rig for 700-900 that would have cost u 3000 if u bought it from a store or from another company.

Just sell anything on craigslist or ebay that you are willing to part with or just don't use anymore. Personally I'm selling all my game consoles :). Sorry but once you truly experience PC gaming you will realize that consoles just don't offer the same experience.
