I run Animal Crossing City folk on 60 % speed. And I want to increase the speed, how can I do that?

Any suggestions what I should buy for my PC?
Or should I change the settings?

New CPU + motherboard + memory and likely a new power supply as well (not sure since you didn't post that).

$150 will not be anywhere near enough.

What specific motherboard do you have? You might be able to drop in a phenom II cpu with your current setup.

Falls du wirklich nicht mehr kaufen kannst, schau mal, ob du eine bessere CPU auf dem Mainboard verwenden kannst. Die CPU ist am wichtigsten für Dolphin. Braucht auch nicht mehr als zwei Kerne, hauptsache hohe GHz.

er unterstützt die Phenom II Serie nicht einmal

Er brauch ein neues Mainboard + CPU
