Hey everyone, newcomer here!
I've been doing some research myself, but haven't been able to find an answer.
I am currently owner of a (rather outdated) PC, which used to be pretty good when I bought it, but not annymore.
Some specs:
OS: Windows 7 x64 Home Premium
Motherboard: P5K-VM (Asus)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 @2.66 GHz~2.7GHZ
RAM: 4GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX460 SE
Since I am not an expert, but also no novice, I am guessing that the main problem is my CPU (and my motherboard, since it does not support i5/i7)
So my question to you guys:
Is it possible to keep my gfx card and ram, and replace motherboard and CPU for better ones? If yes, which motherboard/CPU would you recommend? Or am I better off buying a new computer?
My goal is to play games, mainly (MMO)RPG's (Skyrim), and I don't really care about max settings, but something like medium settings would do for me.
Thanks in advance!
