is it worth it upgrading this pc?

[ARchamps]

If you are into building a custom PC, it's the way to go. You'll get higher quality parts and more set for the long term. i spent under $1,000 CAD on my system and I don't forsee myself getting any significant upgrades for the next few years. Even for a $500 - $600 budget, you could build a great system for BF3. The main component you would spend on would be PSU, GPU and CPU. You could skim on the other parts.

Good luck!
