hey i wanted to know if this can play battlefield for at ultra with out lag or at least high

 

 

this my old pc and i dint want it to sit there doing nothing so is this a worth upgrade (and no i cant buy a intel cpu)

[Oshino Shinobu]

I have a friend that has a similar setup and it copes with BF4 fairly well. Around 40 FPS at high and closer to 60 at medium. 

 

If you go for a 2TB HDD rather than 3TB, you should be able to knock the GPU up to a R9 280 http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-r9280gaming3g

[dragoon20005]

the sensible upgrade will be the CPU and GPU

 

but the issue is the board used now

 

that board is not build for the FX 8320

Kool but still no.

 

Doesn't matter how reputable, they aren't designed for gaming any machines.
