I don't plan on upgrading it just yet, but when we do, I plan on doing it one piece at a time, so if possible, tell me which part to upgrade first, and then second, third, etc. I will outline all of the specifications, and seeing as I don't really know which upgrades to pick, which are the best for budget (Under $200 per part (Under $100 if possible for something that's considerably better than what I have in my friend's rig), so if somebody can help, that would be VERY much appreciated. I am pretty sure this computer needs an upgrade or three) I would build a whole new one from scratch, but some of the stuff inside of it is still perfectly good and we can't really afford a new one, which is why I asked for a piece-by-piece upgrade and which to pick first, as that's kind the way we have to go.
I looked up a lot of the parts, and the majorityseem to be quite Sub-Par. T_T TIPS PLEASE?
