What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - Chanku - 04-30-2014 10:02 AM After I upgrade the PSU, which part should I upgrade and why. Should I upgrade: - MOBO/RAM/CPU (along with an SATA DVD/CD player thingy and a new case) - Graphics Card - Just get a bigger case for now - Get a new HDD - Get an SSD. the CPU on the computer is an Intel Core 2 Duo(one of the earlier ones too). The mobo is one that comes with the MPC Clientpro 385. I have 4 GB of DDR2 RAM. The HDD is 160 GB SATA, the graphics card itself is an Nvidia Series 8 (8400) GS edition.

What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - Chanku - 04-30-2014 10:10 AM It servers my purposes at the moment. Hell I'm on a 60 GB HDD right now. What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - brainiac3397 - 04-30-2014 10:12 AM Believe me, it won't last long. Unless you don't aim to figure out how to squeeze 40 video games onto it along with other stuff like I tried. What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - Chanku - 04-30-2014 10:23 AM Well then again my laptop(which I am using) only has 512 MB RAM, Onboard Graphics, a firewire port, is an HP, runs windows XP, and has a Pentium M processor. So I can't play many games, but at the same time I don't plan on playing many games. Edit: also I do plan on using RAID (either 1, 5, 6, or 1+0 (1+0 has both features of 1 and 0, but if a drive fails it becomes RAID 1)), and, at least, one External Hard-drive at some point.

What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - Chanku - 04-30-2014 11:48 AM Yeah I was thinking to spring for a new Mobo so I can get an i3(at the very least I kinda want an i7 if possible) CPU. Also I want to move away from DDR2 RAM ASAP. What part of my computer should I upgrade next? - Gwedin - 04-30-2014 03:59 PM Yeah, MOBO. Foundation for better upgrades in the future.

You can just find more in your PC by deleting System32! Sadly, it doesn't work on Windows 9x, MS-DOS, Linux, Mac OSX, or Mac OS. |
