My friend has had this computer for some time he wants to be able to play h1z1 and arma 3 with mods. He has £155 to upgrade he wants to know what he need to buy so he can run arma3 and h1z1 smoothly.

going to need to throw more money at it for alright framerates unless he is willing to have the settings right down.

The issue here is that the said games are CPU intensive. And he has a bad CPU which means that an upgrade is going to cost a fair bit more due to him getting a good upgrade, he is going to need a new CPU [£130/150 mark] and a new motherboard [£40/50+] and GPU [£100+]

Let us know if he can do that. If not, we can get something together but its not going to be great.

Graphics Card, no not really as it is low end and poo.
CPU, would require a new motherboard and if you're doing that then he may as well get a skylake i3
