What would you suggest that I update on my computer?

I got a hold of a pretty nice computer, but I don't know what to do to make a platform game "evolutionary" (at the lowest possible cost).

Here are my current features:

Make/model: Dell Precision T3500

MFG Date: 26/06/2010

Processor: Intel Xeon W3540 @ 3.2 Ghz (Hyper Threaded image)

RAM: 24 GB PNY @ 1600 Mhz DDR3

Fans: Dell Stock

PSU: 525 Watt

Graphics card: Force3D Radeon HD 6450 (2GB GDDR5)

Network connection: Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx series (Gigabit)

Storage: 256GB OCZ Vertex SSD 4

Anyone have any ideas? I think that the graphics are the biggest bottleneck.

Future proof depends on how long into the future, and that your expectations about eye candy

and performance. It may be these dogs running after the experiences of the tail.

The bases which the cpu can last about 5 years before being replaced by the card game, but the graphics card will more often to replace in two or three.

"I think that the graphics are the biggest bottleneck.

Without a doubt...

Quad core @ 3.2 GHz cpu... Check.  24GBs RAM?  Right! It is a work station. Games don't

still use 8 GB yet, unless you have a lot of things open when the games... Check.

CPU Xeon workstation is more optimized for software games, but should be

still works well with the maps below.

[Note that many games have problems when Hyper-threading is enabled].

Gpu - low-end (even when it is new) HD6540... Replace.

You can opt for another AMD card. Something like a 270 R9 or 270 x would give a helping hand

for game performance. These cards are low/medium of mid-range, respectively.

Power supply - depends on which of the two versions provided with this unit.

The model 85 + money would be desirable, as a 525W PSU is close to the minimum capacity for a

R9 270/270 X that has a minimum of 500W (suggested minimum of Gigabyte).

-A good quality all about 600W power would be necessary with a 280 R9 or 280 X.

You should read a few comments (material, not NewEgg or Amazon sites) to compare the performance between the above four maps, or the 260 series if you want something less expensive.

Case - determine the case is deep enough at the back of the HARD drive to the back cage

for the card to fit. Some cards can be very long.
