I got an old system from my relatives. specs are pretty old.
intel g2020 2.9ghz
msi h61m-p20(g3) board
2gb g.skill ripjawsx 1600mhz (runs at 1333mhz though)
seagate 160gb harddisk(7200rpm)
a local power supply of 430w
This system used to be ok before but after installing win 10 Os, it started to hang a lot, i mean literally a lot. takes about 5min to boot. And another 3mins whenever I open any application like explorer or firefox, firefox takes really a lot more time to do anything, not only firefox but any other browser is also acting in the same way. I'm a bit tight on budget now, I'll buy needs for this pc later definitely but I can afford either a hard disk( will be Western digital 1TB caviar green) or an 8gb gskill ripjawsx 1600mhz ram. Just only one among these.
What should I buy among those to improve the perforamance at the least possible?
In simple words, what's making this system slow? plz help.
