[What should I upgrade?]

Any suggestions anyone?

[What should I upgrade?]

I am currently purchasing a major upgrade for my PC in an attempt to achieve 2 goals.

 

 

1. Run SW:TOR at the best possible graphics without losing performance

 

2. Stream without any hardware lag issues using Xsplit.

 

 

Here are my computer specs.

 

Operating System:

Windows 2.6.1.7601 (Service Pack 1)

CPU Type:

Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz

CPU Speed:

3.21 GHz

System Memory:

3.87 GB

Video Card Model:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460

Video Card Memory:

2.65 GB

Video Card Driver:

nvd3dum.dll

Desktop Resolution:

1600x900

Hard Disk Size:

931.51 GB

Hard Disk Free Space:

385.54 GB (41%)

Download Speed:

2.02 MB/s (16.9 mbps)

 

 

I have a budget of about 250 dollars. Some are telling me to get an SSD, some are telling me to upgrade my processor to an i7 quad core.

 

Honestly I have no idea what I should do. Any and all feedback is much appreciated

Will there ever be a Pod Racing system implemented in the game? With the implementation of Space Missions many of us are curious about Pod Racing.
