Hi guys I'm looking for some help and suggestions as to what I should upgrade on my computer. I'm wanting to upgrade it mainly for gaming purposes. Age of Conan has just came out which I want to try and with Warhammer coming up I figured nows a good time to upgrade.

Right now I'm using a stock Acer Aspire E360

AMD Athlon 64x2 dual core 3800+
1.5 gig ram DDR (512 upgraded)
ATI Radeon X300 256mb (pci express)

Here is a link to it.

I know my vid card sucks and I have to upgrade it as well as prob some ram. I'm only really wanting to spend around $100 on a video card but can go up to $150 tops. Any suggestions would be appreciated. If theres anything else you need to know about my comp just ask and I'll be happy to dig up the info. Thanks for the feedback.

The only thing I would really suggest is that you upgrade your graphics card to a 512 MB one. Games these days really required high end graphics.. the RAM seems fine to me and the processor is pretty satisfactory too..
