Hey guys, first time posting on Tom's Hardware. I was hoping I would be able to get some feedback on my current pc as to what I should upgrade to make it more gaming friendly. Ill try to list the specs as best I can.
It is basically an upgraded Hp pavilion media center m8000 desktop right now. The pc was my grandmas and broke down on her so she told me I could have it if i got it running. I replaced the cpu with another of the same kind AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core processor 5000+ 2.60 GHz. I have also added a better graphics card, AMD Radeon HD 6570 and I use if for dual monitors connected by an hdmi cable and a dvi cable.
When i first got it from her I also put in a different psu I bought it used off of some guy and to the best of my knowledge it is a cooler master real power pro RS-650-ACAA-A1 650W ATX Form Factor 12V V2.3 / SSI Standard EPS 12V V2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply.
For memeory I just upgraded last night from 3.00GB to 6.GB and also switched to a 64 bit version of windows 8.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
