    Is there anyway to beef these up a little to help make it play a little better?
    I was thinking pick up a gpu a little up spec.

    Old stuff-
    - Gigabyte GA-G41M-ES2L
    - Intel duo E5300 no OC
    - Nvidia 8800gt(x?)
    - Corsair XMS2 2GB DDR2 6400C5 TwinX Dual Channel (TWIN2X2048-6400)

    Atm his happy lappy gets 20fps which for what it is im surprised.

    This is a for the future project hehe
    Bush has been beaten i know.
    Obviously it runs amasing on my pc, but if i can give those old bits a boost im for it

    I don't even think that graphics card in the link would do much in fps because the CPU and memory would be your bottleneck.

        Have you checked the stats of your system when the game is running? Is CPU maxed out? GPU? RAM? Always a good base when looking for something to help performance.
