So it's been while since I've gotten this computer: http://www.cnet.com/products/asus-essent...-05/specs/
Since Black Friday shopping it here and around the corner, I'm looking to upgrade this computer (if possible).
For the most part, it runs extremely well still but for League of Legends I lag periodically and no more than like a minute at a time. For higher end games (like Vindictus), forget it. The lag is a lot to deal with.
I'm also running on the lowest graphic settings.
I'm assuming I'm going to need a new video card. I don't have much experience in replacing parts on the motherboard, so I don't know if it's easy to accomplish or whatnot.
Budget: ~$600 (will go to like $700 if VERY convincing)
I've installed 4GB DDR3 RAM in it, totaling in 8GB. Bought them at Best Buy.
Intention: Playing the hell out of video games (with the occasional Netflix and chill).
Living Area: Bay Area, California (Richmond, specifically).
Anything helps!
