It wasnt the CPU itself, it was a Graphics card, and 1 stick of DDR3 2GB Ram. so, yeah. Honestly, im 14, really like PC's, but im REAAAAALY scared to build one. I really just want one for TOR. Thats it, Thats the only PC game I play.
EDIT: I also saved from 08 all the way to 2011. Thats when the system reccomended specs were announced. 3 years of not spending is a PAIN.
