Ok, my PC is quite old specs...

MB - Asus P5
RAM - 2 Gb
Graphics card - GeForce 8500 GT /w 512Mb RAM running on PCI Express
Processor - Intel E4600 Duo core, 2.4GHz

I think the CPU is still ok, just need to upgrade the graphics card.

Try moving to ATI Radeon. If you want to get a good card for relatively little money, go for the older, high end models.

Done that before, I find that the CPU lifespan shorten quite a bit. Anyway, I don't do intensive 3D gaming, so don't need that kind of processing power. Just need enough to run a game reasonably... especially if I want to get Starcraft 2 :)

Passive cooling is nt buay kan.

if it is buay kan, it will nt exist till these days.

passive cooling still does its work of bringing down the temp of the chip. Jus dat it need a cooling surrounding to help do its job faster. which is why ppl still choose to add a fan on top of passive coooling system.

Y i suggets dat cos bro thexder need somthing dat is able to run SC2 which dat card is able to run SC2 in minimal gfx settings.

If he want to see more details of SC2, of cos he need to get higher spec card.
