Gaming PC configuration

[badass708]

Hello,

I want to convert my work PC into a gaming PC. I have around 20k rupees to spend.

Following is the current hardware configuration of my PC-

Motherboard :- Intel series 6 chipset
Processor :- Intel i3 2120 @3.30 GHz
Power Supply:- Circle CPH694, max power 400w
Hard Disk:- Barracuda 1 TB
Graphic Card:- ATI Radeon HD 5450
RAM:- Kingston 4GB DDR3.

I don't want to replace motherboard and processor. What else should I replace to make my work PC a decent gaming PC?

Model no??? I think a 660 will be overkill for such a small monitor. But you will be able to max out the settings at a lower res.

Can you tell the max resolution of your monitor?

Can you tell the max resolution of your monitor?

1440x900

 

[shivakanth.sujit]

You can easily max out the settings on that resolution. For new monitor :-

Samsung 22inch or dell 20inch.

New CPU , its a Major one than the monitor . You can use your current monitor itself and spend the extra bucks on the proc.
