Hey I use to be a pc gamer years ago but I've been bumming out the xbox 360 for god knows how long but I've always wanted to come back to playing pc games. Just wondering what pc requirements I need to play the modern games nowadays I have a Graphics; ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO 128 MB CPU;INtel (R) Core (TM) 2 Quad CPU @ 2.40GHz MainBoard; Dell OFM586 Windows Visa 6.0 Premium edition Memory DDR2 2048 So I know my computer is pretty wank now, is it probably better to buy a new gaming computer or could it be updated by me cheaply and able to comfortably run Call Of Duty FarCry ETC if I bought a new graphics card..or something??

Answer 1): a new PC if you want good fps and high settings Answer 2): a new GPU

Even with a GPU you'd need more Ram and by that point your CPU is weak now too, your compy is old it would be better to build a new one
