My mates got an 'old' computer, which he wants to upgrade to play 'spore' and other newish games. Selling the parts on ebay to recoupe some cost.
The Specs are:
- Althon XP 2100+
- Geforce4 MX440
- 1*256mb ram
With a 60gb HDD, CD-RW/DVD combo drive, and a 250watt psu, all in a really awfull case.
So yeah, he's looking to upgrade the ram, becuase its low, but then also the CPU and Graphics card, which will properbly force a Mobo change. And the stick a larger HDD in it.
I said that he should just just sell the PC, and build a new one, seeing as all he's going to be left with at the end is a new pc, in a old box!
- What are your thoughts, and what sort of specs would he be looking at being about to afford. Budget of about £300/400ish
