Hi there,
My desktop PC is beginning to show its age and I would like to improve it. However, I’m not sure whether I am in a position to upgrade or will have to start again from scratch. I’d be very grateful if someone could help me decide what my best options are please.
I have the following setup at the moment:
Motherboard: Asus A7V8X-X
CPU: AMD Athlon XP1800 1.1.5Ghz
RAM: 1Gb
HDD 1 x 80GB Seagate Barracuda, 1 x 160GB Seagate Barracuda
Graphics card ATI Radeon AGP card (very old!)
CD/DVD Samsung DVD, LG DVD-RW
The HDD drives and CD drives all connect via IDE.
I use my PC mainly for music, entertainment, web browsing and work/study (Word, Excel, Powerpoint). I’m not a gamer or video editor. I’d just like something a bit quicker and more reliable. I’d like to salvage as much of the existing kit as possible, however, I’m prepared to spend some decent money to get something good.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
Cheers!!
