Good evening,
I have a wee and slightly old computer to run the odd game on. Its really struggling nowerdays and I am considering upgrades. I am not wanting anything special - I am more than happy to play games on very low settings, but lag has become problematic. Games aiming for - Divinity Original Sin 2, perhaps Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order (I played a few worlds on this before it got unbearable). I have perhaps £200 - maybe a spot more.
I have used CPU-upgrade to establish that the i7-4790 could be a potential cpu upgrade. And that perhaps a GTX 970 could help me out. No idea if these would really work with what I have got. Perhaps, I am buggered - any help appreciated?! Current specs below -
Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Pentium G3258 @ 3.20GHz 38 °C
Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (11-11-11-28)
Motherboard
MSI Z97 PC Mate(MS-7850) (SOCKET 0) 32 °C
Graphics
SAMSUNG (1360x768@60Hz)
2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti (ASUStek Computer Inc) 28 °C
