Hello, it's my first time here in this forum ! So , i will get into the subject :


a few days ago , i found a brand new ThinkCentre M55p Desktop with an irresistible price ( almost free ) so i bought it for my brother !

My brother is 10 years old , he loves gaming so i said i can upgrade this desktop for him to play with it ! I know this computer doesn't do anything special and it's extremely old ! but can someone tell me the maximum hardware that can support this computer ( Basicaly GPU , CPU , RAM .. etc )

and the budget needed for this upgrade !

Note : i did not expect too much so don't say just buy a new one and thank's in advance

Appreciate the help

Note : This computer have an E6300 with 1.86 GHZ and Intel GRAPHICS 3000 SRS ! 1 GIGA of RAM ( I Can upgrade into 4 pr ùpre if i can )
 
By the time you buy parts to upgrade it, you would have spend enough to just get a faster used computer. A computer with 2-4 gig of ram and close to a 3 gig Core 2 Duo can be found for $100 or less. You can find all the details about the system with a web search of the model number, Lenovo has some good maintenance documents for their business systems you can read.

You also need to list what form factor the system is, and what the power supply is and what your budget is for parts.
