Oh sorryI think a good question is, what specific issues are you having? ASKING "What to upgrade for the best experience" is hard to answer; because you could upgrade everything in a computer for better performance. And if you just want affordable upgrades, you need to provide information about what games you play and what exactly you hope to achieve so we can provide helpful information. For example, "What do I need to upgrade if I want to run Skyrim smoothly at 1600x900 at the highest graphics settings?" (as an example), and what your current settings are would give us more information to work with and help posters make suggestions.Another good thing to include would be a budget as well...

That's exactly the question i want to be answered

1600x900 for the oldest monitor

Newest one was suppose to be 1600x900 but there's a problem with it so right now, it's 1440x900
Using Dual Monitor btw

My budget is 100-400$ Quote from: Quantos on November 24, 2012, 04:29:52 PM

Lucky guess on my part


Anyway, I'm not really a hardware expert, but if I had to suggest one thing in your current config that might be a limiting factor, I'd think it is the Graphics card. The info you posted doesn't include RAM, but if it has the 6GB DDR3 that comes with it according to the model page, that ought to be enough.

Aside from the graphics card, also, everything in your machine is better than the one I have, and I'm able to Play Skyrim on the highest settings without any issues. (My Graphics card, for reference, is a 9800GT).
