I really don't know a lot about computers. I can build something given the parts...but I do not have the knowledge to go out and shop for some of these things myself.

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: 6 years ago

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: I want to play Legion on a medium setting if possible....right now i can barely play Warlords with everything cranked down

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: AMD Radeon HD 5450 and I believe its the stock 300w

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 945 Quad Core

Motherboard: H-RS880-uATX (Aloe)

Hard Drive: 1tb

Memory: 8gb

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg or amazon

OVERCLOCKING:No OR CROSSFIRE:No

MONITOR RESOLUTION: I believe 720

What is your budget for the upgrade? At 720p this would rock your world. Any other upgrade isnt really necessary.

I just looked it up...its actually 1080p with a max resolution of 1920x1080...my bad

The card i mentioned should run Legion on High/Ultra at 1080p. May i ask what your budget is for the upgrade?

 

[iammrjinx]

My budget I saw would be around 300 dollars.
