My dad is selling up soon and has no use for the PC anymore, I told him I'd see if I could sell it on,
but after testing some games I wondered if it'd be possible to upgrade it .

The Specs are
Dell Inspiron 530 32 bit , 64 bit capable
Processor- Intel Core 2 Duo E4600@2.40 GHz, Socket 775 LGA
RAM- 2GB
Motherboard-Manufacturer is Dell Inc , model is 0K216C .
Memory- DDR2 2GB Dual Channel 399.0 MHz , Module size 1024 MBytes , Max Bandwidth PC2-6400 (400 MHz)
GPU- ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO 128 MBytes

I'm not expecting to get a gaming PC from this but would be interesting to see what I could possibly do with it ?


 
Solution
You can do some upgrades to it. An E8400, for about $25 on ebay, normally. You could upgrade to 4gb ram. If the PSU is a 300w, you could upgrade the graphics card to a GT 730 64bit GDDR5 model only, GTx 750 or GTX 750ti.
