Mine laptop is quick enough but lacking in the graphics department.
I don't wanna spend alot on it tbh, so is it best to make one from scratch from second hand bits or hunt for a eBay bargain?
Have a max of 200 really, yes I know that's low lol

Never going to get anything worth using on SWTOR for £200...
That'll just about get you a graphics card

The game isn't even worth it in my view.
It's very repetitive, feels like a single player game, played it for about a month and then never bothered with it.
I only get about 40fps on it, so would seem it's not very well optimized at all.
AMD ll x6 1090t 3.2ghz
4GB ddr3 1333mhz ram.
Windows 7 64 bit.
Asus HD4670.
And in gaming the processor still does about 80% of the work.

This is how I felt about it, would have made a great KOTOR 3 but it's not an MMO.

I agree. I built my PC to play SWTOR but after like 2 weeks i stopped playing it. Repetative and the quests suck.
My specs are;
Phenom II x4 @ 3.6Ghz
8GB 1600Mhz ram
Radeon HD 6850
Played @ 1920 x 1080
Got about 60FPS if i remember in Warzones and stuff.

That's a decent gpu as well, a lot of fast ram and a good processor, greedy game it is !
