I have had my current setup for around 5 years, Im having problems watch videos online then the system crashes. I have tried to fix the GPU with online advice and still freezes. Also the system is just old and looking for an upgrade.
I do not do gaming, mostly online, movies, music, also my business computer(quickens). Thanks for the help.
