Motherboard: ASUSTeK m5a97 r2.0
Processor: AMD Athlon II x3 445
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
RAM: 12GB
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
So, long story short:
I got this old computer from my dad that I used to play on when I was younger. He tried to upgrade it with some parts he had lying around, but the processor and video card can't keep up with newer games. I have checked the other parts and it's only the processor and video card that are outdated. I was wondering what parts I should upgrade to instead? And should I change the motherboard as well? I can add further information if needed.
Thanks in advance.
