Low end pc, need help.

[KingToXiiCz]

Hey, these are the specs of my PC:
4GB DDR3 RAM
Windows 7 64-bit
intel pentium dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz
radeon x600 series 256MB

I was wondering if i could run CS:GO, and if so what kind of performance would i get?
Thanks for the help!

cpu should be more than enough, GPU wise though id recommend an update, even a low end GT610 has enough gits to kick out 60+ fps on the lower settings

Thanks!
I´ve done the system requirements test and it says i can´t run it on minimum settings thanks to the GPU ( says it needs atleast 256Mb RAM, i have 253Mb, and thanks to the CPU, it says it needs Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 or AMD Phenom X3 8750 processor or better, i have Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz
What im guessing here is that my GPU and CPU are the big problem, if you guys can say whats the best of both on a 50-75$ budget i would be extremely happy.
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
I'm sorry for my late respense. I've beein riding MC latelty.

Ok. I agree with Baumy15 the CPU is not the bottleneck - the GPU is.
But Your whole system is at the lower end, so don't expect very much improvement.
Req.
1. Can it fit in your chassis?
2. Can the the power supply support it?
3. Is this a PCI-E or an AGP card, since this computer is very old?
Please see this for explanation: http://www.onlinecomputertips.com/pc-hardware/video_cards.html

Ps. I think any of these these sub 100$ PCI-E cards will just do it: http://www.xtremegaminerd.com/best-graphics-cards-under-100/
Just make sure You connect the external 12V power connectors from the power supply, to the graphics card back or on the side or its topside.

But first, check according to point one and two above.
Point 2 will help you here: Power requirements for graphics cards
