Intel Boxed Core i3 540 Processor

[dal2000]

So I'm looking for a new processor. I am on the tightest budget you could imagine, but it must be done in order to play Bad Company 2:twisted: . I'm specifically looking at the Intel Boxed Core i3 540 Processor - 3.06GHz Dual Core - Socket 1156 - CPU. What I can afford is a CPU that cost roughly 1.4k, motherboard and the required ram. My limit is 2k, however I know that this will end up exceeding. Please help me with some advice. Thanks!

PS: I really dont want to breach the 2k limit too harshly

Wrong section. Could I please have this moved to the PC hardware section.

dual core and battlefield bad company are not friends dude.

Look at possible amd's quadcore with a motherboard. Should come to around 2k or so.
