    Default Some upgrade advice

    Well im looking to upgrade the other PC ive got here now, current specs are:



    Graphics Card is roughy: Nvidia GeForce2 MX/MX 400
    HDD: 40GB(fine for now)
    Cd Rewriter
    CD Drive
    Floppy Drive
    Don't think the PC is quite sure what processor is has, some areas say Celeron and others are saying Pentium4

    Ive done a crucial scan and it came up with these results, but im not sure my motherboard can even have that much RAM, it was made around 1999/2000 ish


    What cheap upgrades could I do to improve the performance?

    Upgrading anything on that PC would be a waste of money.

    You would stuggle to find any good updates considering how old your hardware is. Just either build a new computer or buy a new one.

    Would be a waste of money, but if you insist on upgrading something then the only thing i'd take a punt on is a little more ram. Whack a 512MB module in there to make it 0.75GB in total.

    Get a new motherboard
    New processor
    More RAM
