Hello, Im planning to upgrade my desktop (Emachines W3609, People say its not worth it, but, Im wanting to see what other people think... if these components are good for some games...)
Graphics card from Intel GMA 946 to HIS radeon 5450 (http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX42181) (Is this better then the Intel GMA 3000,965,950?)
Ram from 512Mb to 4 gb ram (I've been looking around, and, people state that they have been able to put 4gb ram in this machine... Since the board supports it..) (http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX15596)
Powersupply from 300W to 500W (If i can find a powersupply, That i have, it might work, But is a bit outdated "only has IDE hard drive power connectors, So, I might just use both power supplys, But if i do, I can get a cheaper powersupply...) (http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX35072)
(OPTIONAL: Fan controller, aftermarket CPU cooler)
Computer specs without upgrades:
CPU: Intel Celeron D 3.33 ghz,
GPU: INTEGRATED Intel GMA 950
RAM: 512 mb
harddrive: 120gb
Games planning to run:
Minecraft (dont have to if i cant)
World of tanks (TOTALY OPTIONAL)
nfs underground
LASR (L.A Street Racing)
Gt-Legends
Garrys mod (AGAIN, OPTIONAL)
Team fortress 2
Total (without OPTIONAL) 155$
I do have enough to upgrade this, Now, If i say "is it worth it" you guys are gonna be like "NO ITS NOT" or something similar. So, Please, My best computer in the house i have right now, Is:
Pentium 4, 3.1 Ghz
3.1 gb ram
Nvidia geforce 6600 (NOT GT) pci-e
So, Is this worth it, Better then the best computer i have?
