hello there.

i wanna upgrade my motherboard, graphics card, cpu and ram and i dont know
what to choose. i don't know anything
about motherboards and cpu's but it must be good enough to
run games like call of duty world at war, Far Cry 2, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell and Empire total war .....

my total budget at this moment is €130 or $191,92.
and about over 7 months it will be something like €200 or $295,26.

can somebody please help me?

If you're running vista, (not sure about anything else), right click computer and click properties. this should at least tell you how much RAM you have.

right, well 1GB isn't a lot, so you will probably need to upgrade that. 4GB of ddr2 would be a big improvement for not too much money but it's still gonna take a hefty slice out of your budget.
