Hi everyone,
I have a Dell Vostro 1550 with an Intel Dual Core i3-2330M processor, and 4GB Ram and internal Intel HD Graphic Card. Motherboard Model - 061W4M. Memory - DDR3 500GB. I run a 32-bit Windows 7 Ultimate, but system is 64-bit capable. My basic use for the laptop is gaming, not hardcore, running latest softwares and games for home use. Can someone suggest best upgrade options for my system in budget ?

Might benefit from a dedicated graphics card if you have the space, but if Intel HD does it for you, then that's great.

The single best upgrade would be to opt for a bit more RAM (8GB is a good sweet spot) and switch over to a 64-bit Windows so you can take advantage of that. Or an SSD. Switching from HDD to SDD is like going from dial-up to Google Fiber.

I am sorry... Dnt know much about Hardware components... My budget would be around US$200 or Rs.12000/- (I Live in India)

 


I would buy an EVGA GTX750Ti Superclocked because a 760 will go over budget.

And what about the processor..? Will it support the upgrade or i need to upgrade the processor too...
Currently my processor gives a speed of upto 2.20 GHz which i think is a bit low. Please suggest....
I'm thinking of AMD FX 6300 - 3.5GHz 6 Cores OR AMD A4 6300 - 3.7 GHz 2 Cores.
