Hey guys,
I have an older computer, a Gateway GT5694. And, can't afford a new system right now, so am trying to breathe a little more life into my current one. So far I've put Windows 7 Home Premium on it, then maxed out the RAM to 8gb, and added a low-profile Nvidia Geforce GT 610 video card, which suits my needs for light gaming. I am tackling the processor next, and the Phenom 9100e @1.8ghz is very slow by today's standards. It struggles to handle mufti-tasking, downloads take forever, and it sometimes freezes while watching Netflix and Hulu. i need a little more juice, my budget is $100.

Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks!
