Hi long time visitor to the Site!

Just recently my computer stopped working I've yet to diagnosed the problem however everything I've tried so far has been a dead end. Anyway I think it's time to upgrade. Here are my current specs

Intel e6660 3.06ghz
Ati 4830
Asus p5mx motherboard
2gb ram
500w power supply
Case
250gb hdd
Dvd drive

With this setup running at 1920x1080 I was running far cry 3 on medium at around 15-20 fps.

I'm willing to stretch my budget to 400 if needs be. I want it to play the latest games well as I do a lot of gaming but I was also would like a fast processor and a SSD for extra speed. Thanks

Waste of money these days, you'd be in a similar position if you got yourself a Core 2 Quad alone
