Hello everyone, after many years without any desktop, I finally purchased a used, decent system. It dates back to 2012, but it still looks great.
Intel Core processor I5 2320 (quad core)
AMD Radeon HD 7350 1024 mb
8 gb ddr3 (2x4, 2 slots available, for a max of 16 gb)
1 TB hard drive
PSU: LiteOn 300w
I now want to upgrade the graphics card and I figured I might as well make it worth my while.
I'm looking for at least 2 gb, but mostly, my requirement is that it needs to support the latest Direct X 3D.
I'm aware that the PSU is weak and will also need to be upgraded.
Later on, I intend to add SSD drive(s), so maybe take that into account to determine the watts.
This motherboard can accommodate 8 more gb of RAM (I'd like to get 2x4, to keep it even).
Suggestions/comments/advice to improve the overall performance of this system?
