I have the following spec
Asus P5N-E SLI motherboard
Inter Core 2 Duo E6420 2.13Ghz (Socket 775 LGA)
8GB RAM
ATI Radeon 5700 Series (1GB)
I don't play the most cutting edge games, mostly stuff like Lord of the Rings Online (4 years old), WoW (7 years old), and lately some FIFA 12.
I plan to play SWTOR in the new year though and I think my system is going to start showing its age. The weakest link is probably the CPU, but can I get a significant upgrade without changing the motherboard? I guess I am stuck with a Socket 775 LGA processor unles I get a new motherboard right?
(Just the thought of changing motherboard and having to reinstall everything makes me cringe and puts me off even getting SWTOR).
