Author Summary

Post Body

Hey there, I built a pc back in 2008 with the components listed below and It did the job nicely. ( ran crysis on medium, played fallout on medium etc). Im looking to play Diablo 3 on highest settings, but cash is a little thin on the ground right now.

Assuming a budget of maybe 750 euro, ( flexible ) Whats the minimum that would need to be upgraded here to ensure I could play it? What balance of spending and saving would you advise? How does upgrading components compare with totally fresh start in terms of value and future proofing?
