iszit necessary to upgrade a processor?
iszit necessary to upgrade my processor? I am using Intel P4 2.8GHz LGA775-pin. When i look at all the latest games, they dun require a very strong processor, P4 2GHz will do, but that's only the minimum, the recommended processor is Dual Core processor. Should i upgrade my processor?

If you don't have a decent video card , there is no point in upgrading .
I'm using a pentium 4 2.4 ghz and it's not limiting my video card . But if you use a good video card , then yeah , upgrade it .
