Logically, of course it won't be the same; CCD 1.3 has new road textures/many graphical innovations, so it will need higher specs.
Besides, back when 1.2 was release, the computers were less advanced then now, so the min. configuration should be lower.
I have an Intel 2 Duo and overclocked it. Honestly, I've found my game gains around 5 FPS as it has a good fan.
The problem with a lot of other desktops is that the fans pick up dust and needs to be blown out with an air duster.
I did this with my Dad's Intel i7 in his laptop and it improved the CPU speed more than you would expect.
Anyway, for the OP, if you would be open the this, I would recommend building a desktop. It is cheaper than buying a prebulit, and you can max it out more because of the variety of parts. I would be willing to help you out with finding parts if you were open the this idea.
