Yeah it's faster a nice leap forward especially if your overclock.

1GB RAM to 3GB... Depends on what your doing and OS your running plus tasks you have out, more RAM is always a better option

radeon 7000 to geforce 7600gt... Big difference here 64mb Vram compared to 256mb

I keep something about that old for just playing late 90's early 2000 games on. It also runs a CNC wood router and computerized Embroidery machine, both use software that wont work right on a OS above Windows 98 and.

Running a Linux distro would be a better fit for online activity, they don't slow down over time "Windows Rot", They are much more secure and less of a target for Virus and Malware and they are supported actively unlike all versions of Windows except Win10.

Specs to run any of these comfortable are around this.

1.5GHz processor+
1024mb ram+
VGA, DVI or HDMI screen capable of 1366x768 resolution+
Around 20 GB of disk space
