Hey everyone. Its been 4 years since my last post and last computer build, so I´m pretty rusty... Like the title implies, im still running my old build and trying to run games on it. I recently got The Witcher 2 and it is unplayable, even at low settings. My build is the following:
Case- COOLER MASTER RC-690-KKN1-GP Black SECC/ ABS ATX Mid Tower Computer
Mobo-DFI BLOOD IRON P35-T2RL LGA 775
PSU- CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX
CPU- Intel Core 2 Duo E6550
RAM- ST- PC-6400 800 4GB (2 x 2GB)
Western Digital Caviar RE WD3200YS 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb
SAMSUNG 20X DVD±R DVD Burner Black
Microsoft Windows Vista 64-Bit Home
BFG 8800GT OC
I am running the game on my TV, at 720p resolution. My question is the following: Would getting a new video card help at all or is the CPU too slow? I cant build a new computer just yet but I can afford a a decent GPU that will last me a while and that will be usable on my future build.
Any suggestions?
