I have PC with following components

Processorcore 2 duo e4400 2GHz
MotherboardIntel D945GCNL
RAM1 GB DDR2 533 MHz
Graphic CardNVIDIA 9500GT 1GB DDR2
PSU450w with Foxin Cabinet

MonitorSamsung 1600X900 60Hz

I played many games like bad company 2,MOH 2010,mafia 2,COD Black Ops but can't play new games like fifa 2012, Homefront,Battlefield 3 etc

Can I upgrade my PC(without upgrading CPU) to play Battlefield 3 or other new games?(Suggestions plz)

OR
I should buy a new PC

first thing to do is to upgrade ur psu get a GS600 then if u get a good gpu 6850 or 560 then ur cpu will be bottleneck so also get a second hane quad core if u find one else u can sell ur existing components & upgrade to new one i think will be the best option

go for a new setup. upgrading will need: old used processor, more DDR2 ram. and total price will be same as a new setup.

going with a new rig makes more sense - if you are on tight budget then get a AMD based rig - they cost less and performs great - a true VFM

Go for a full upgrade. Worth spending money. (considering your present rig)

My vote too goes for a total system upgrade. Let us know your budget and we'll suggest you a perfect rig for your money.
