Pc upgrade

[shaun]

Right I want to change a few things on my pc so i can run better graphics and do it as cheap as possible and ideas i am currently running
Intel (R)
Pentium(R) D CPU 3.20GHz
3.19GHz 1.00GB ram

Would just changing the graphics card help or would I have to change the processor aswell

Graphics card will be a huge help, lots of new tracks utilize 4GB GPUs pretty heavily.

Yeah i changed the graphics card it helped alot i can actually use shader model now but still a bit laggey on the supercross tracks

This is a pretty old CPU and you might want to think about a new CPU, Motherboard, Ram and Graphics card. Even though its a 3.2Ghz cpu they didn't exactly get a lot done per/clock back in that series as compared to the 3.2Ghz CPUs now.

Both are ~$600 and both using about the cheapest parts you can use for a gaming machine today.

Running Intel grgaphics means you don't have a graphics card, everything is being run off of the CPU. If you could verify that your system can handle a 750Ti do it but its probably time to upgrade in a massive way.

I have chaged the graphics card to a amd radeon 5450 hd seems to be going good now but at times it will lag but better than it was and im on a very small budget
