I need to buy a new graphics card or CPU, lol!

 

Hi everyone, I am trying to run this baby playable on a 8400Gs.. I know it's a crappy card, but it's all I got right now, so bare with me.

 

I have overclocked it to around 600mhz (the card)

 

and my Specs are:

 

Amd athlon 5600x2

3GIG DDR2 RAM

8400 GS 512MB RAM

 

 

 

I oc'd my cpu to 3.3ghz (61celius).. really hot... tounge.gif:p

I oc'd my graphics card to around 600mhz or w/e, 100+ from the 512 (That thing is around 67 Celsius) really hot..

 

 

So here is the question:

 

Should I go get a new cpu or a graphics card, and can you recommend me a cheapest card , I only have a 280W PSU.... sad.gifsad.gifsad.gif

 

I need to run the game atleast with 25FPS PLEASE.

 

I am able to get 13-17FPS With my settings above... it's playable but it's annoying and gets to low to 9fps sometimes, it just really annoying.

 

 

So please recommend me a card or cpu... and Do i need to eventually by a new PSU??

 

Thanks alot guys

I can't really think of any card better then a 8400 that would run on only 280w, that's mighty low for anything decent!
