Computer noob, need help!.
Hey guys im not exactly what you would call 'tech savy' , I have a custom built pc which i have had since about 2007 i think, i am noticing that new mmo's and fps games are becoming a bit to much to handle for the standard i would like to play at!.
I am in college and haven't really got the budget to go blowing thousands of pounds on a new rig so i was thinking of just upgrading it.
This is what i was thinking of getting:
Hard Drive
RAM:
Corsair TWIN2X4096-6400C5C 4GB 800MHz C5 DDR2 Memory Kit
Video card :
I dont know weather to change my cpu, need a bit of advice weather to or not , the one i am currently using is :
AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core processor 5200+ 2.61 GHZ
If i am going to update this, i will update it to :
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Quad Core Processor
Now i need your advice on weather i will need a new motherboard for this hardware because as i said, i just play the computers in all honesty i dont really know what goes on inside haha.
The current motherboard i have is :
Board: ASUSTeK Computer INC. M2N-E SLI 1.XX
Bus Clock: 200 megahertz
BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD ASUS M2N-E SLI ACPI BIOS Revision 0701 03/02/2007
I just copied that from belarc , not sure what info you need.
I would greatly appreciate your advice, im sorry if i havent listed any information you need but if i haven't just say and ill post it asap!, cheers in advance guys 
Soul.
