Core™2 Quad Q6600 could probably be had for fairly cheap if your motherboard supports it.

What is your current setup?

Good to know, thank you!

What brand and model motherboard do you have?

Reset the BIOS to factory defaults.

Have you set the game to use the nvidia card in the nvidia control center? The game is designed to use a certain amount of cpu, that, I don't believe can be changed. You may be best off upgrading the cpu when you are able to. I would not recommend an i3 for gaming, no matter how much you do...

Try looking into a Lenovo or Asus, something with at least an mx150 dedicated GPU.

When you say not working, what are your referring to? Are you getting into POST? Can you access the BIOS, if so, ensure you see the ram there?

I think you may be running into a CPU bottleneck. I agree with XxDarkMario20xX , try dialing back some graphics settings in the game and see if that brings CPU usage down. Also check out this bottlenecking guide...
