If I upgrade this CPU will it run this game without problems?

Okay I got a old Dell OptiPlex GX260 that I have had in storage for awhile now.
Specs can be found here: http://www.austincc.edu/cloud/manuals/Dell/GX260/specs.htm

I am looking to save what money I can and try to upgrade this CPU to run a game or two that I play.
Requirements for the Games:
Game 1:
CPU: Pentium 4 2.4GHz or higher
RAM: 1GB
VGA: GeForce FX5900 128MB or higher

Game 2:
OS: Windows Vista / Windows 7
Processor: Pent. 4 equivalent or greater
RAM: 2GB or more recommended
Graphics: 128MB or higher recommended (Direct X 9.0c or later)

Now after looking at the specs and talking to Dell, Employees at Office Max, Circuit City and Best Buy, some say that with the MAX 2GB upgrade and a New 256mb Graphic card will run these games with no problem even with the current Processor.

Now I am looking to upgrade this to save what ever money I can save. $50 is $50 non the less. SO I come here to seek some more input on the issue at hand.

I currently am renting a computer, the CPU I run now is the Acer Aspire X1200, AMD Dual Core 2.1GHz processor, 4GB RAM with the GeForce 9200 *1902 total dedicated memory*

This CPU has no problem at all running the game and that is how I like it. But if I do go about getting the 2GB RAM and 256mb Graphic card for the GX260, do you think I can still run the game without problems?

I look forward to your answers.

Thanks

First of all, for gaming, and I am a gamer so i have some idea as to what I am saying, you need a good overall computer. The CPU is only one part of a system, and to game on a comp means you need to have all parts able to handle the load. If you put a faster CPU, but neglect to upgrade the video and sometimes sound and on board ram, you might as well have gone fishing without a pole.
As you did not mention what games you want to play on it, I really can’t say if it will or not make any improvements. My guess would be the latter. My advice is to scrap the old unit, and build a new one which can handle all your gaming needs, dosent have to be high end, but only middle of the road for a decent experiance. Yo can build a very nice rig for 7 to 1000 dollars. Thats middle of the road. Sorry but computers are like used cars, they last only so long and then there obsolete.

I’m redecorating my 3 1/2 year old daughter’s room…any cute ideas that she’ll still want in a few years?

Here’s the bedding I just got for her: http://www4.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6E.aspx?DeptID=59474&CatID=76919&GrpTyp=ENS&ItemID=1557420&attrtype=&attrvalue=&CMID=59489&Fltr=&Srt=&QL=F&IND=2&cmVirtualCat=&CmCatId=59489|76919
It’s the Betsy set with the pink, yellow, green plaid, butterflies and flowers. Her furniture is all white, the carpet is blue at the moment, but when I get her new, it’ll probably be green that matches the set-she wants pink but I’m not sure she’ll still like it in a few years-I’m trying to think long term for carpet. The blue does match, but there’s isn’t much blue in the quilt so I’m not sure how long I’ll be keeping it. Her walls are a beige-almost a pale yellow, which I’m keeeping for now.

She has cube shelves in her room with her books on it and a few other things, plus two of those little canvas crates for storage. Plus a big ttable for coloring and play-doh, a pink storage thing, and her dresser. I want it to be as open as possible, so I don’t want to add any more furniture, besides and easel her grandparents are getting her for Christmas. I’m going to buy pictures of animals, butterflies, and flowers for her walls, plus some pics of family and pets. She also has one of those dangly sun catcher things for by her window and a fake fish tank which will be her nightlight.

DO you have any ideas for decorating? Some things I haven’t thought of? I don’t want the sticker appliques for her walls-her doctor has them in a couple of his rooms where kids peeled them and I think she may do that, too, so when she’s older I’ll look into them. I was thinking maybe cloud ones for the ceiling though! Anything you could suggest would be great:) Thanks for any help you can give!
She actually has a kitchen, but it’s downstairs-she spends most of her time down there. She also has 3 white shelves and a stuffed animal net. I’ve looked into the paint she can draw on, but will it teach her it’s okay to draw on walls?! That scares me! Yes, I want to get her a dream catcher too:) I actually made a few in highschool-maybe I can find the one I loved-it matches her new bedset! And the pictures won’t be poster sized-she has one poster of a chihuahua with a pink background-that’s it! These I’ll probably get from a stock photo place, but I’ll check Hobby Lobby (or is it Lobby Hobby, lol)! All great ideas-I’ll wait to pick in case I get more-the more the better-I’m overwhelming myself with this and am trying for things that’ll last years, so any help is sooo appreciated:)
Oh, and the pics for her walls will be of real things like flowers, animals, and butterflies so they can last her forever or me forever-she actually said she wants animals and butterflies over theme-rooms-we’re a serious animal-loving family:)

Chalkboard Paint! Its the best thing that has EVER been created. Apply that to your walls and she can make her own designs with chalk that she can erase and do over any time that she pleases. You don’t have to do the whole wall, of course, just a section or a little piece. Just give her something for her imagination to run wild with.

I also like the idea of clouds on the wall! Thats really awesome! You could also do a paper michay (however you spell it) of her favorite thing (butterfly, flower, whatever it may be) and make that her night light. There are instructions online to do that with. I’ll try to find those for you.

Honestly, other than the chalkboard paint for the wall I would leave them alone because to many parents try to hard to do things for their kids and they just grow out of them so quickly. Think. . .in a couple of years your little girly girl could be a tom boy and want bugs or insects or even cars all over her wall but she’ll be stuck with flowers because money is tight.

I also think that hanging a dream catcher from a ceiling fan in the room is beautiful. Especially for night time. I’m not much on the sun catcher, although they are beautiful. Dream catchers mean more, to me, and every night my little boy falls asleep telling me what all his dream catcher is going to catch during the night.

good luck with redecorating!
