Hey Guys,
I have an old HP desktop that is pretty slow and possibly in need of an upgrade.
The current machine:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64
AMD Athlon II 630 2.8
6GB Ram
ATI Radeon 4200
Asus PCE-AC66 802.11AC Adapter
I have available a 450W PS and a Gigabyte GA87N wifi MB. I'm comfortable with the current display and would keep the current 1TB HDD in the dell for storage in the new rig.
We use the PC for photo storage, a bit of web surfing, some minor pic editing, no gaming, scanning emailing, organizing, etc etc.
My thoughts were to get a mini ITX case, a new SSD, processor with acceptable internal gfx, ram and move all apps and OS over from the old machine to the new (SSD) and use the HDD for storage. All this said, what direction makes sense? What would you suggest as for as rebuild and with which components?
Thanks,
Bryan
