Good evening,
I'm looking to Upgrade my CPU and GPU to run PCSX games on my PC. More specifically FFX, FFXII
I currently have a slow emachine:
Operating System
Windows Vista Home Basic Service Pack 1 (build 6001)
Processor a
AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3600+ 2.0ghz (single core)
256 kilobyte primary memory cache
512 kilobyte secondary memory cache
64-bit ready
Not hyper-threaded
Main Circuit Board b
Board: Gateway MCP61PM2MA FAB1.0
Bus Clock: 201 megahertz
Memory Modules c,d
896 Megabytes Usable Installed Memory
Slot 'A0' has 512 MB
Slot 'A1' has 512 MB
Display
NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430
I'm looking to get one of the bundled deals from newegg CPU + GPU.
What would be compatible for my PC? I'm looking for full performance.
For the GPU: Do I need AGP or PCI?
For the CPU: Would I be able to switch to Intel? If so, Should I switch to Intel?
I would appreciate some advice I'm not too tech savy anymore.
Thank you in advanced!
